IMO, Mo Wells is either gone before this season starts or soon after. And then pending how well Beanie does this year and his junior year, he could possibly leave early for the draft. So Thomas is a must get.

His style of play reminds me of Reggie Bush and Joe McKnight. He could be a multi-purpose player like I think Saine will be. I always loved the Marshall Faulk/Reggie Bush/Lorenzo Booker type player.

I guess maybe I should have clarified that Thomas is probably going to be a WR first and foremost. Thomas does have the versatility to be a RB as well though. And I would like to see him used a little bit in that role as well, cause of the matchup problems he would give defenses. That is why I think Thomas would be a great addition to this class, he provides versaility in the running, passing, and return game. You can never have enough guys who can create defensive mismatches on the offensive side of the football. I agree with San Diego who said that he could be a Faulk/Bush type player for the Bucks.
