Right on- so if Thomas stays deactivated, who 'steps up'? My money's on Bodden or Springs- the first time either one of them gets beaten in coverage, I could see the whole board turning on them in about 2 seconds.
I'm betting on one of the O-Line. They're home grown, not superstars, higher picks... fits the mold (maroney, watson, etc).
Could be Tate though. He sucks so bad he doesn't even get activated.
