Baltimore has their new defensive leader.
Thomas will do wonders there..

I for sure thought he was going to Dallas or San Francisco

Still have like 5 other defensive holes to cover after being decimated during free agency. Nice pick up.

Out of the division and across the country. Good. I'd puke if I had to watch him next to Sherman.
He's going to the HoF, so as long as his legs stay unbroken the Ravens will get some excellent play out of him.

Thank you for your service, Earl.

Nice deal for Thomas. Got paid for playing this year and then still got a nice contract despite the injury.

Thomas already has a Hall of Fame resume.

Out of that LOB defense, it’s him, Wagner and Sherman that are going to Canton.

At least Dallas didn't get him.

Absolutely, I forgot a comma - adding that makes the sentence read the way it should.

To be honest, the Seahawks played well after the Thomas injury...Hawks can get another safety in the draft.

They need an edge rusher or two and an ILB. Secondary and DL set already. No biggie

Best secondary in the league. I feel the Mosley loss will hurt though.

I'm very curious to see how Tyus Bowser gets used this year. Same with Tim Williams to a lesser extent.

He's recorded a sack in every game he's gotten over 20 snaps.

Obviously the position has downgraded but Onwuasor is a starting-caliber ILB. This is still a top 5 defence in the league easily.

Chancellor will make it as well

The prototypical future Dallas Cowboy

The prototypical future Dallas Cowboy

The Cowboys have no culture whatsoever

A toxic player like Thomas would fit in perfectly with their lack of culture

Instead of giving up multiple picks for Adams, the Cowboys might get Thomas for cheap without giving up anything. He clearly has some character concerns but he's still good.
