Michael Thomas

Junior, Ohio State

Ohio State’s fourth-year junior is destined to have a great season in Columbus. With the third-most yards out of any returning receiver last season, Thomas really made a name for himself in a crowded Buckeye offense. It was hard for me not to rank Michael higher; with his size, speed and hands, but there are honestly too many other great options in the Ohio State arsenal on offense to have Thomas get equal touches compared to other guys in the conference. Prove me wrong, Mike.

This dude will likely still have a remarkable season, go pro and have a great career though. He learned from the best too, as his uncle is former NFL wideout Keyshawn Johnson.
