Miami Dolphins TE Julius Thomas wore out his welcome with the Jacksonville Jaguars in part due to his limitations as a blocker, according to a source, which called Thomas’ blocking ‘non-existent’.
Footballguys View: That sounds about right. Thomas hasn’t developed as a blocker, and at this point of his pro career he never will. The Dolphins didn’t trade for him to blast open holes as a blocker. Instead, the Dolphins want Thomas because of his receiving ability and threat to score in the red zone.
