I like the boldness of your suggestion, I think you get the concept of this thread. These are the type of "crazy it might work" offseason moves that are so random that one of them could just happen.
I think its an good trade, but the draft pick should be higher than a 5th and, IMO, at least a 4th.
Preferred Trade Scenario:
Hernandez < Thomas & 3rd
Hernandez > Thomas -straight up |

Herno has done more than Thomas ever could do.

That's a joke of a trade. |

You're really underrating DT. I wouldn't trade Hernandez for him but DT is going to be a pretty good WR.

If he learns how to run routes, catch consistently and can get/stay healthy. |

It's not exactly fair to criticize a guy's route running and hands when he's got Tim Tebow throwing to him.

He had the same problems coming out of college and exhibited the same problems with Orton.
Tebow sucks, but Thomas is still a very raw product. His injuries and the coaching/QB change in Denver have slowed his development.
You can blame Tebow for not getting him the ball, but if he's still a poor route runner and he drops too many easy passes for a top WR.
Does he have potential? Sure. But he's an unfinished product and he's just as likely to never quite develop as he is to put all the pieces together. |

You have to wonder why Josh selected him. |

I guess he did extremely well in interviews, breaking down film, and has a high football IQ.

He will be quite expensive. I think we should stick with Connolly/Wendell/McDonald.

Pass. The Pats can get by with some combo of Connolly/Wendell/Koppen/McDonald/Draft pick
Wells would be a great player for the Pats but it's not worth spending the $$ on IMO. |

He wants top 5 center money and he was horrible in 2010. |

People said the same about Chad Jackson, who was reportedly great at the combine interview in breaking down schemes and diagramming plays and such. |
