For all intents and purposes, Thomas can be considered a bust based on being the third-overall pick in 2017. The 49ers have hit on a lot of defensive linemen in recent years, but he’s not one of them. San Francisco chose not to exercise the fifth-year option on his rookie contract, cutting him loose after four seasons.

Of course, as the third-overall pick, Thomas has continued to get the benefit of the doubt from teams. He looks destined to spend his career as a backup or rotational player, but that appears to be a role that suits him.
