Rutgers already has three blue chip WRs signed for 2012 in Leonte Carroo, Ruhann Peele, and Carlton Agudosi. The last two aren't locks to qualify though, nor is athlete tweener Delon Stephenson. That could explain the decision to go after Thomas, who is a pretty good prospect in his own right. Either someone doesn't qualify, or Thomas and/or Stephenson end up on defense along with Davon Jacobs and Jevon Tyree.
