ESPN: Demaryius Thomas hopes to pay big dividends - Page 7 - The Orange Mane

enjolras · 11-01-2012, 02:11 PM

Rewatched the last two games while I was working today...

One thing we haven't talked nearly enough about is how well Thomas is blocking. He's thrown some really nice blocks that have sprung guys for double digit yards just in the last two games alone. He's not a lock you up kind of guy yet, but he has that physical knock-you-out shoulder thing going on.

I'm really excited about him.

if the kid can keep his head out of his ass and not become a prototypical WR with a huge HEAD case. then he is progressing really well..

I did not think he would be running such sharp routes yet thought with the total lack of experience in college and frankly his first tow years in the NFL, it would take another year to be on Manning wave length..

I agree, he's thrown some huge blocks on several plays that I've seen. I think Decker is probably a better route runner but DT has better hands and is obviously a beast physically.

I'm glad you mention this.

No one talks about it, but DT really does give good blocks. Not only in effort, but the decisions he makes to block...

Playing at GTech helped him there.

Demaryius Thomas - 69 - Receptions - 1114 - Yards - 8 - Touchdowns

Boobs McGee · 12-05-2012, 12:46 PM

STUD! Every time he catches the ball, it seems like he can shed tacklers with such ease. He has that effortless Erik Dickerson speed, where it LOOKS like he isn't running fast, but the afterburners are in full blown speed mode.

LOVE this kid!

I found this yesterday and thought it was a good read.

It is analysis (with pictures

) of Thomas' development as a receiver.

SonOfLe-loLang · 12-05-2012, 01:15 PM

are people over his fumbles yet?

The question should be: is Thomas over his own fumbles yet?

Will it matter when he breaks all the Bronco single season receiving records?

Thomas is the best Bronco that nobody knows. He is so big, so strong and he catches the ball - he used to have concentration drops, but not any more.

Cito Pelon · 12-06-2012, 08:55 PM

DT with an ice pack on his right shoulder in the lockerroom, says he hurt it just a little bit on one of the slants. Dude has been taking some nicks all year, good to have a long break coming up.

I believe it was the play where he trucked the guy. He blew a would be tackler up.

Early this season there were people, right here on the Mane, saying we should cut him. Of course there were also people that were mad we brought in Peyton Manning and cut you-know-who. Ya gotta love it.

Come on man! Who said that we should cut Thomas? He single handedly beat the Steelers...with over 200yds receiving and the winning TD in overtime. Nobody was saying we should cut Thomas dude!
