Thomas was a guy I was really keen on in that draft. Productive, versatile, Spags-y kind of guy with some inside-outside versatility.
He’s a potentially nice stand-in for Omenihu and the price is great. |

It's a Veach move. And it's for a 7th. Trade a 7th for Clarence Thomas for all I care.

Bunch of us loved this dude in the draft forum. I thought he was a potential 1st rounder and would’ve loved to get him in the late 2nd.
Definitely a worthwhile gamble for a 7th. He’ll probably move ahead of FAU on the depth chart and in the rotation almost immediately. |

Interesting footnote that Chris Cabbot - Mahomes's agent - is the one who "facilitated" this deal.

Chiefs put BJ Thompson on NFI and Omenihu on PUP this morning, so that’s maybe the “why”

Just bottom line this for me -
Is he an edge setting sonofabitch, or isn't he? I know coaches (and organizations, for that matter) by and large have an ability and tendency to outthink and outsmart themselves from time to time, but I swear the Cardinals are cursed with ownership on down that could ruin a surefire wet dream. |

At the time we were pretty convinced GK was going top 15 or so. We were discussing him in a similar tier as someone like Jermaine Johnson before Johnson got crazy helium late in the draft cycle (which was evidently bullshit). Now I’m gonna concede that we were wrong - he clearly wasn’t THAT good a prospect. But the Cardinals haven’t gotten his best out of him either. In all reality he’s probably a good 3rd round quality prospect who can be a solid rotational player. Which, right now, is more than we can say for FAU. |
