Thomas adds a speed element that looks different from Kansas City's other edge rushers. He can threaten tackles immediately off the ball, and passing downs are the obvious place to let that quickness matter early.
Strengths: Second-round investment, 15.5 recent college sacks, burst, pass-rush win rate, and initial-53 role.
Weaknesses: At 241 pounds, he must prove he can hold up against NFL run-game physicality and handle a full pro workload.
