I think as a rotational pass rusher we can get that out of him which would be a nice bonus. We obviously still look DE, but remember we really only have 3 on the roster, and if we get a guy like Thomas he can swing inside and outside so it doesn't effect our roster "count" too bad. The thing here is if we sign him, it doesn't force us to go DE early if we don't have a guy there we like. If there is a run on DE's leading to 9 we don't have to reach in round 1 and can grab someone like Demarcus Walker in the 2nd.
I like the move if we can sign him.
If the price is dirt cheap and he is simply a 3rd down pass rusher then so be it i wont complain, but its nothing more than that. Considering the talent level we have lost over the last 2 season both on and off the field we should be looking to do much much better. But this is the Level MB rolls at.
