Julius Thomas scoffs at fantasy experts
New Jaguars tight end Julius Thomas arrives in Jacksonville after two 12-touchdown seasons with the Denver Broncos. Thomas parlayed that productivity into a five-year, $46 million dollar free-agent deal, but some doubts remain whether the 27-year-old will have similar success playing outside of Denver's high-powered offense and without Peyton Manning as his quarterback.
Included among those skeptics, a number of ESPN's fantasy football experts, who picked Thomas as tight end "bust" for the upcoming season.
Thomas took to Twitter to issue his response.
I love it! #We'llSee RT @nfuston: No love for @Julius_Thomas this season apparently. pic.twitter.com/Oeh56hHSSq

Whether Thomas will be able to match the numbers from his days in Denver is unclear, but he certainly seems to have plenty of motivation heading into the season.
