Jacksonville-jaguars
According to the Florida Times Union, Jaguars receiver Mike Thomas is now fifth on the depth chart after Justin Blackmon, Laurent Robinson, Lee Evans and second-year player Cecil Shorts.Fantasy Spin:Thomas was further proof last season that simply being the team's No. 1 option in the passing game doesn't automatically equal fantasy success. He finished with 415 yards and one touchdown in 15 games and shouldn't be owned this season.
