Phillip Thomas played Strong Safety for Fresno State and judging by his stats and game film has been very successful at his position. Growing up as a kid, Thomas liked the Washington Redskins. He wanted to play as them all the time when he played his Nintendo 64. He would even imagine himself on the team while he was playing. I think that he will be available come the time to pick for the Redskins. If he is still available then I have to believe the Skins will pick him up. Thomas seems to be very excited about the idea of coming to Washington and playing for us. Let me tell you why I think it's very possible that Thomas will be on this team next year. In his Senior year he totaled 84 tackles and 12 of them were for a loss. He also had 4 sacks, 8 interceptions, 3 touchdowns, and 4 forced fumbles. It seems to me like this guy can do it all. If you don't believe the stats then you can go right on Youtube and watch him play. Given all of this AND he wants to play for us? He can have an awesome career here in Washington. Will he be a 2nd Round pick or a 3rd Round pick? If he does fall to the 3rd Round, will the Redskins trade up to get him. He could just slip all the way to the time we pick in the 3rd Round. I don't know how it will happen but I do know for sure that the Redskins will have struck gold if they drafted Phillip Thomas.
