757-NINER Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 3 hours ago, J-ALL-DAY said: Disagree. Thomas started at big end spot last year and got handled in run game. Once he moved to LEO, he was isolated and started stopping the run much better. But obviously you are in the nickel more anyways, and he wouldn't be playing big end or Leo, so it wouldn't matter. He didn't get handled. Did he struggle some? Sure. He was a rookie who missed virtually all of OTAs/mini-camp. He struggled pretty much everywhere he played last year. And I expected some growing pains. But he didn't start enough games there for me to say he's definitely not a fit there. The big end is basically a 5-Tech in this scheme and that aligns more to Thomas's strength at this stage of his development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
