Brian Thomas can thrive in the X role and be good as this downfield receiver. Uh I think Sammy Watkins and Brandon Cooks were great comps... him finishing as like the wide receiver seven in points per game is probably unlikely, but I think he could finish like the wide receiver 15 in points per game and give you some big spike weeks kind of similar to like a Jameson Williams discounted.

WR15 PPG projection with spike weeks; boom-bust downfield role vs. Washington's consistency.
Ron Stewart assesses Brian Thomas Jr.'s X role as viable, defending against misuse of the sacrificial designation and noting he can thrive as a downfield receiver similar to Sammy Watkins and Brandon Cooks. While finishing as WR7 in PPG is unlikely, Stewart projects him to finish around WR15 in PPG with spike weeks comparable to a discounted Jameson Williams. However, Thomas has a boom-bust profile because he must win vertically down the field, contrasting with Parker Washington's more fantasy-friendly role; while Thomas may be equally talented as a receiver, his usage pattern is less consistent for fantasy purposes.
