thesitedoc 5 Posted August 24, 2014 Last year Thomas and Sproles each got 549/77/513/5 and 220/71/604/4 on terms of rush yds/recs/rec yds/total tdsNow that Sproles is gone, I wonder if it is over zealous to expect 100 receptions from Thomas. Not sure the Ingram or Khiry pose much of a threat in that part of the Saints game.Anyone thinking Thomas is a late round gem that could post 1200 total yards/ 100 receptions and 8-9 TD's It seems to me the the Saints RB's are always overlooked and possibly rightfully so, but could this be the year Thomas emerges as a semi stud do to the vacancy left behind by Sproles.

famousb 11 Posted August 24, 2014 Ingram has already been more involved in the passing game, and he's shown solid blitz pickups - which helps his cause to be out there on passing situations. Also, don't forget Cooks is going to be getting some of the opportunities vacated by Sproles. I personally wouldn't be on PThomas having 100 recs; though what's wrong with just being happy with the 70+ he posted last year??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh I'll be happy but I would be happier still if it came with an extra few TD's. We are only .5 PPR so that mitigates my happiness just a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NEWPOSTERGUY! 267 Posted August 24, 2014 whoawhoawhoa ... let's pump the damn brakes here, Sparky the hell with his projections ... 'dafuq you talking about with "late" round gem?? his current adp is 7th round ... so, unless your draft is only nine or ten rounds, then there is no way in hell this dude and "late round" should be uttered in the same sentence. HTH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kent 228 Posted August 24, 2014 He will get at least what he got last year. But his ceiling is even higher, at around 90 balls. He grossly underrated this year though. I got him in the 7th and Ingram in the 12th which is crazy. People must want no part of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted August 24, 2014 can we tie up new poster guy with upper class trash and snatchit and ship them all to the land of axe elf? the receptions left by sproles can go to any number of players. Cooks, Thomas, a few to Ingram/Ronbinson and some to Kenny Stills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swirvenirvin 25 Posted August 24, 2014 should be in the 70's. No where near a 100. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,315 Posted August 24, 2014 Possible as long as he stays healthy. He's a very dynamic player. I am extremely high on him in PPR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geddy11 4 Posted August 24, 2014 Pierre will probably have his best games against better offenses teams that the Saints may get in a shootout with. When games are on the line, I promise P. Thomas will be the guy called on. I bet he's lost fumbles less than 7 times his whole career. The dude is just money. One of the most underrated RB's in the whole league. But, his general work load will be less due to some young talent, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
