Thomas is a guy I really like on film because of how natural he looks at safety. He’s got a good build and isn’t afraid to come downhill to play the run, which shows me he’s confident and sees things well. He takes good angles and doesn’t waste steps, which is rare to see consistently at smaller schools.

He plays fast and trusts his eyes, and I think he’s the type of player who could surprise people as he gets more exposure.
