Thomas has "easily been the best player in camp so far," according to the New Orleans Advocate.

EDGE Analysis

Certainly some of the early praise surrounding Thomas can be chalked up as "coach speak," but the rookie out of Ohio State has made several highlight-reel plays during the first few days of training camp. At 6-foot-3, 212 pounds, Thomas is a physical receiver with the ability to pluck balls at their highest point, making him a dangerous red-zone weapon. As of now, Thomas should probably be penciled in as the Saints' No. 3 wide receiver -- behind starters Brandin Coleman and Willie Snead -- but he could push for an even larger role if he continues to excel during training camp.
