Ian Thomas Dynasty Value

Minimal college sample to work with. Thomas played just 11 games at Indiana, catching 28 passes for 404 yards and 5 touchdowns at 14.4 yards per reception. Nearly all of that production came in his final season, when he went 25 for 376 and all 5 scores in 9 games, averaging 2.8 catches and 41.8 yards per contest. The prior year was negligible, just 3 receptions for 28 yards in 2 appearances. At 259 pounds with a 4.74 forty and a 36-inch vertical, the physical tools give you something to dream on. Indiana never featured the tight end in their scheme, which makes evaluating Thomas more about projection than production. He flashed enough in a single healthy season to get drafted, but this is a pure bet on coaching and development at the next level. R4.101 for an athletic but raw tight end whose tiny college sample makes him one of the higher-variance picks in this class.
