Highly thought of two years ago. Now, I dont know what to make out of him.

No. Give me Logan Thomas next year in the 3rd or 4th.

Logan Thomas is literally awful.

Just read some of this stuff on rotoworld.

NFL.com's Mike Huguenin writes that it is "becoming increasingly evident that [Virginia Tech senior QB Logan] Thomas' impressive 2011 season was the aberration."

Huguenin inked an article last week that praised Thomas for his strong play in October, but the senior's disastrous outing in VT's upset loss to Duke on Saturday (0 TD, 4 INT) prompted the scribe to essentially write a retraction. Thomas, who is often compared to Cam Newton physically, has thrown more interceptions than touchdowns in his fifth year on campus. "In short, the intangibles don't seem to be there," wrote Huguenin.

Virginia Tech senior QB Logan Thomas is listed in the third tier of draft-eligible prospects at the position by ESPN's Todd McShay.

Thomas lands ahead of the fourth tier, which is designated by a "day three" tag. "From his size to his arm strength to his ability to spin the ball to his mobility, Thomas has everything you look for in terms of physical qualities," McShay explains. "But he has to show more consistency. No QB in this class produces more varied opinions -- some scouts still love him, and some have completely written him off." Thomas is currently undraftable from a passing standpoint, but we have conceded to the fact that he will be selected earlier than his play indicates.

I look at him as a project. That's why if he's there in the late 3rd or 4th, you take him. He also is huge in size and a mobile QB similar to Cam, but not Cam.

Josh Norris thinks that he will come into the NFL as a TE, he's so bad.

I'll take him as a TE. But, I think some teams will like his size and mobility too much as a QB. I mean he aint AE or Denard Robinson.

I wouldn't mind him as a TE, either. He's fast for his size. But as a QB? No way in hell.

I think he could be a Jordan Reed type player.

      2025 Schedule Release - post 'em when you find 'em

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
