I'm surprised hes not with the Jets, or any team for that matter.


I guess teams saw the same highlight I did where he got stonewall blocked by Garrard and he had a full head of steam.

He didn't have a good attitude, but i think his problem is simpler than that. We signed him when he was 29 years old. His best years were on the Ravens.

He got older and slower. He was always known for his speed, and it went.

He wants a big money deal and his skills aren't what they used to be. It's really no suprise that there isn't a big market out there for his services. I'd imagine if he lowered his asking price, the market for his services would suddenly get a lot better.

Well, Rex Ryan did say that the Jets are waiting the market to be set for Thomas before they consider pursuing him. It is quite clear he meant that they want to make sure the market is set so they don't underpay him and screw him over. Yes, they could get him for a song now, but is that really fair for Thomas and Jets want to look out for Thomas' best interest.

Seriously, has any free agent ever been signed in training camp for much more than an one to two year deal for around the veteran minimum and modest signing bonuses and/or incentives. Any free agent who pulls themselves off the market until training camp either know they aren't going to get more than that and figure they might as well avoid offseason OTAs or are one of the dumbest people on the planet.

No way does Thomas get a good deal in training camp. If he gets anything other than a very modest deal it will be in the next few weeks. Considering there is no action on the guy, it is doubtful.

How could a team not want a washed up, malcontent, has-been? I mean look how well it worked out for the Vikings last year, I mean you know if you don't count him throwing the Superbowl away.

Favre never should have been put in that position. You can do what pretty much every single Vikings fan has done, which is blame Adrian Peterson and everyone else on that team who coughed up the football. Fumbles cost them that game long before Favre made that throw.
