@Cantguardmike IS A STUD
Yes sir, Saints rookie WR Michael Thomas is living up to his Twitter handle. We all heard about how dazzling this kid was throughout Training Camp, and it took only one game for him to show that he is the REAL DEAL.
Thomas had 4 catches, and 67 yards to lead all Saints wide receivers; and we quickly we saw the explosiveness, and big play ability from Thomas — as it seemed every catch he made was a big one.
But maybe none bigger than this one:
The throw is incredible. The catch by @Cantguardmike is even better https://t.co/aqk8hpDB70

“I just saw single-high, man, and a 6-3, 6-4 wide receiver. I’m going to give him a chance every time” Saints QB Garrett Grayson — who threw the pass — said about the SportsCenter Top 10 worthy catch.
Grayson later continued to rave about the young prospect and called Thomas a “stud”, along with a “2nd round steal.”
If Thomas continues to make plays like those in the Tweets above, then the compliments should start to come at him by the multitudes.
