Even before he mentioned Mike Thomas you can notice him breaking off a nice route in the background. Man, if that guy can soften those hands up a bit, he could really be something. One thing we can (hopefully) agree on is that the kid can get open. That is half the battle.

I'm not trying to give Thomas a hard time, but one catch did go slightly through his hands and hit his face mask, but he did catch the ball. I concur Thomas has the ability to get deep as well, but most likely only 6 WR's will be kept and one can surmise barring injury that four...Austin, Woods, Kupp & Reynolds are set, which leaves Cooper, Spruce, Thomas and others to battle for the other two spots.

I noticed that too, haha. In fact he seemed to juggle a couple of the catches in that clip. Not sure if there is a cure for the dropsies actually, but I love this kids separation.

Yeah I think its called don't fight against the ball, fight with the ball. I think when he gets the timing right it should all fall into place.

At this point, my money is on Cooper and Spruce filling the final two spots!(y);):D

I shouldn't have said juggled. He really doesn't juggle or bobble any of them, they just don't land like they would in, say, Torry Holts hands. What I do like is the way he runs. Almost reminds me of Rev Ike they way he kinda glides/floats across the field.

The first thought of OTA's while watching receivers was Mike Thomas looks like Bruce out there....

And Kenny Britt looked like a beast.
