The Bears selected Thomas in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 89th overall.
ANALYSIS
Though he primarily operated on the boundary as a starter at LSU, Thomas showed his versatility in motions and backfield action, and he also has the experience on special teams as a returner on kickoffs and punts that should help him contribute immediately to the Bears. Thomas' speed and acceleration means he is a threat to make a game-altering play any time he touches the ball, which makes him an intriguing playmaker in the offensive scheme of head coach Ben Johnson. There's a real chance that Thomas beats out Jahdae Walker and Kalif Raymond to earn the Bears' WR3 job behind Rome Odunze and Luther Burden.

NOLA bound in Brugler mock
Dane Brugler of The Athletic has the Saints selecting Thomas in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 190th overall.
ANALYSIS
Thomas spent the last two years of his college career at LSU, starting in 10 of 26 games and logging 64 catches for 706 yards and six touchdowns over that span. Per Brugler, Thomas doesn't profile as an every-down receiver but brings big-play potential thanks to his speed and competitive energy. The young wide receiver has experience as a returner, which would help him stick on a team's 53-man roster at the end of training camp. If Thomas joins the Saints, then he would be competing with Mason Tipton, Bub Means, Kevin Austin and others for the WR3 job behind Chris Olave and Devaughn Vele.
