The guy didn't look very good in New Orleans and I think (not 100%) he had injury problems. Personally, I'd take Klecko at this point. Before that whole position shift debacle last season, the dude was mashing as D-Tackle. I agree about Thomas.

He's funny and this team lacks for locker room comedians. (I still laugh when I see that clip of Trot rallying the troops during pregame saying, "Where else would you rather be?" And Hollis shoots back, "I'd rather be fishing.") That said, what does Thomas offer besides chuckles? He's not taking one of the top three spots, he's not going to rush the passer next to Howard in the nickle, he's not likely to keep a job unless they keep five DTs and why not keep Jackson in that case, who is more likely to contribute on special teams? Is this just a precursor to a coaching job? Don’t get me wrong, I like Hollis Thomas. He’s funny and this team lacks for locker room comedians.
