4. Atlanta Falcons

Finally, why not throw in a division rival? The Atlanta Falcons have Drake London as their clear-cut, no. 1 wide receiver. But, that's a position they'll be looking at revamping a bit, too. Van Jefferson is a free agent. Scott Miller is a free agent. Mack Hollins is a free agent. What are they going to do in order to build the depth back up behind London?

With London being the big-bodied, outside guy, Thomas might fit well as the complimentary piece who can play the slot and offer this team's next quarterback a steady set of hands. Speaking of the quarterback position, that's a big question mark. Would Thomas sign with the Falcons before knowing who his quarterback is going to be?

Knowing he gets to play the Saints twice a year might be good enough reason for Thomas to consider signing with the Falcons, regardless. He seems like the type to be motivated in that regard.

At the moment, he's still a Saint. But, when he's ultimately let go, does he find his way to any of these four teams?
