There is a clear delineation in route running, including burst, crispness, and phasing to set up DBs between Thomas and the next tier of WRs, including Worthy. Not only that, he excels at deep tracking, effort without the ball, blocking, and so on. Speed is great, but the ability to use that speed also matters. We shouldn't forget that Thomas is a 4.33 player. That's fast at 210 pounds.
This is a really good video that I don't think has been shared showing some of Thomas' routes.
