Olsen may retire, is Thomas the guy?

Olsen is a natural in the booth and after the sh%t show this year, I have a feeling he is probably gone. They needed to get Thomas ready to fill the role (along with Manhertz) to take over.

Thomas has flashed and meh on Manhertz. I don't think they can afford to use a pick on a TE with all the needs on this team. 

I would like to see them get Thomas ready to fill those big shoes next season. Do you all think he can do the job or just another JAG.

Yes,

Thomas was known to be raw coming in.  It was known he has rarely blocked coming in.

He's a dam good recieving TE though.  And has looked great when he's had to step in for Olsen.  His lack of blocking skills have kept him off from being in at the TE2 role.

 I would hope that whoever is running the team gives him a shot. No reason not to if Olsen is gone. 2 cheap years left and you should know what you got after his first year starting. Sign a vet in the 3-5M range who can play with/for Thomas. End the Manhertz era. 
 

   Tough question is how much can you get him on the field THIS year. If we are 5-7, do you start limiting Olsen’s snaps?

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can.

      My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.

      In fairness, she is ensuring she is talked about.  People really aren’t going out there way to bring her up.  It’s some weird poo.  She would end up getting talked about given her actions if she was 40. Bill realizing some of these high end “companions” got a game of their own.  That’s what I don’t think Bill saw coming.
