Re: Jason Campbell Wants Thomas To Step It Up

After watching Thomas this pre season and out in Ashburn he doesn't seem to catch the ball naturally like Kelly does. I think Theismann pointed out that Thomas jumps everytime he catches the ball instead of just catching w/ his hands.

Maturity, or lack thereof seems to be the buzz word surrounding Thomas. Listening to him talk sometimes it would apear he does have some growing up to do. It might serve him well to concentrate less on those video games, and more on his assignments.

Kelly has really soft hands. I think he's going to be a nice contributor on the underneath stuff.

Yes, but he does catch it. Apparently, he still has a lot of work to do to become more productive but when he is thrown the ball he catches it. That puts him way ahead of some of the starting WR's we've had here in the past.

Re: Jason Campbell Wants Thomas To Step It Up

Was Thomas really that different on the field this pre-season? It's funny because both Kelly's and Thomas numbers look ridiculously similar in fact just for fun lets play the guessing game.

Player A:
7 Catches 69 yards 9.9 Average with a Long of 21

Player B:
7 Catches 67 yards 9.6 Average with a Long of 16

I guess though that Kelly made tougher catches based on what I've heard. Still no one beats my boy Marko Mitchell.
