Add Julius Thomas to the List of Athletic Former Basketball Player Tight Ends

via Camp buzz: Julius Thomas a ‘big part’ of Broncos’ O? – NFL.com.

A far more dynamic athlete than Dreessen, Thomas will be a handful for defenses to cover with Demaryius Thomas, Eric Decker and Wes Welker drawing coverage away.

“He continues to make plays in practice, and he made some nice catches (against the 49ers,)” Peyton Manning said this weekend. “So I think he’ll just continue to improve and I think he can be a big part of the offense this year.”

Jordan Cameron has been the more popular name as a break out tight end, and Cameron could very well return value to his fantasy owners based on the Norv/Chud offense’s historic kindness to TEs, but Julius Thomas is also an interesting name among former basketball players now playing TE in the NFL.
