So Miami is going to pass on a playmaker like Thomas who has amazing skills, and would fill a HUGE hole in the defense just because he pulled his hamstring at his pro day where he ran extremely fast???
Get a Clue.
P.S. You have no idea what sits well with the “Trifecta”

I have to agree. If he was high on the Fins list, a pulled Hammy won’t change that.

The Steelers need to trade up, this guy and Polamalu would be unstoppable…. like the staph infections at the Browns facilities.

Earl Thomas = Reggie Nelson. All speed and no tackling.

Earl thomas in the 1st for the texans is where it’s at..
Just wanted to point this out, I said that the texans should draft Toby Gerhart awhile back when you had a topic about him being compared to other white running backs. Your boyfriend Mike Mayock just had a video on nfl.com about it in the texans on the clock. Make sure you let him know I said it first.

With the 17th pick in the in the 2010 draft, the San Francisco 49ers select… Earl Thomas (CHA-CHING!) he was a beast in Texas and I hope he continues his success no matter where he ends up. This injury is just a speed bump, he’ll still do great.

This is the guy I want for the Eagles, and I hope to God he’s still there at 24. Macho Harris is a disaster.

Maybe the Bears could get him with their first pick…too bad it’s in the 3rd round.

If he pulled a hammy, he would fit in perfect with the Giants. They set the record every year for hamstring injuries. C’mon Giants…draft him. keep your streak alive!

So Miami would pass up on a playmaker of Thomas’ skill, at a position of HUGE need just because he pulled his hamstring? Get a clue man.

He needs to go to the Bengals unless Iupati is still available.

With the 17th pick in the 2010 nfl draft, the San Francisco 49ers select Earl Thomas, safety, University of Texas.

@B the Philly Guy
========================
You do realize that macho was a cornerback in college, and the Eagles suddenly think he can replace B-Dawk as a safety simply because they drafted him….IN THE 5TH ROUND…..Macho is no NFL safety, never was, never will be, he got destroyed on special teams last year, he will be out of the league in 2 years…

That pulled hamstring just cost him the chance to be drafted by the Dolphins. The local Miami media has been high on him and by pulling a hammy (not properly preparing, real real short term most likely) will not sit well with the Trifecta.

Doughboy, did you hurt yourself with that bit of cleverness?
Too bad Earl didn’t get to finish his pro day. He’s a guy whose on-field performance, not post-season workouts, should’ve been his main feather in his hat, but the fact is that he’s been burning it up since the season ended too. He’d be a perfect center-fielder for KC.

Mays to houston would be great!!! Plug him in next to pollard. To be honest though, if the right run stuffing dt is there he should be grabbed!! i’m so sick of their dt’s being lame ducks!! How is mario going to show what he’s made of if he can’t get some pressure off his back?

Seems like this happens to someone every year in the combine when they try to push themselves the extra distance. But still Thomas will be an asset to any team he goes to and I wouldn’t mind him in an Eagles jersey. Unless Macho Harris steps it up this season which I am hoping for most.

Berrys’ bettter against the run, Thomas is better against the pass.
Both are WAY better than Mays, he’s just BIG! A smart team would make him a LB

special centerfield skills? you must have been watching different tape than all the Longhorn games I watched. he looked more like feast against lame duck passes, famine against solid jukes from RB/WR to me.

Earl Thomas is a beast. I would love to have him in a Chargers uni. Dude is a bad ass.

I would love for us to keep him in state and bring him down to Houston! FS isn’t necessarily a need but we[most fans] would still love to have him if he lasts until 20.
