Actually, I don't remember anyone clamoring for Thurman to replace Chatman during the offseason, and if anyone did, Chatman silenced them by immediately establishing himself as our #4 receiver in training camp. I did think that Thurman had a good preseason, and should've made the roster as a receiver. I was glad when they were able to pick him up a few games into the season. But he's been a mess since coming back. I do agree with yourout that he could develop into a role player. But it will be a moot point if Walker, Driver, Ferguson, Chatman, and Murphy are all healthy next year.
