Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
Multiple sources I have been running across have Devin Thomas as the latest and greatest "Sleeper" WR for the 2010 - 11 fantasy season. As draft days all across the nation are nearing, should we Redskin fans be prepared for a huge breakout season from our underacheiving (thusfar) 2nd round pick???

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
Hopefully he is a breakout canidate period. Fantasy or not...we just need a viable threat again at the WR position.

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
I don't expect many people to take him in my league just because they pay attention to the record more than the players.
Definitely going to grab him.

Well if he's breaking out fantasy wise, he's breaking out for real, and vice versa.

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
With all of the bellyaching I've heard the past few seasons regarding our three second round picks two years ago, I think we'll be able to salvage (at least two of) them yet!

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
I hope Devin Thomas breaks out.
For Fantasy Football, it depends on how many participants are in your league and if there is slim pickings on you last or second to last pick. I am not planning on picking him. He has to consistently show me something in preseason against starting caliber DB's. If he goes off on scrubs, it will mean nothing. |

One where in Thomas' case, the real and the imagined come to grips.

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
I like Malcolm Kelly for *this* season, but ultimately, when Cooley is going to move around the scheme like a traditional WR1, AND he has TE eligibility, he's got to be the guy for Redskins fantasy purposes. Moss is going to suck up all the "deep" opportunities, leaving Fred Davis and Cooley with the rest.

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
I honestly am not going to target Davis or Cooley in any drafts... because I think they're both that good that they're gonna steal alot of catches/TD's from each other... so from a fantasy standpoint, I don't knwo that either of them are a great option.

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
On the flip side, I'd grab Zach Miller late- JC loves his TEs.

Re: Devin Thomas - The next big thing in Fantasy Receiving????
I'll stay away from him...and then he'll probably burn me like Miles Austin did to me last season(I actually autopicked him in one league, and then proceed to cut him ).

I just have a really good feeling about Thomas this year, simply because I don't think we used him correctly last year, well, I think we know we didn't - and now with Shanahan I think he's going to be used properly.
