LB Zach Thomas is glad to be back in full contact: “Yeah, it was exciting to put the pads on. This is real football, not flag football. That doesn’t count. This is when you find out where the players are.” Thomas thinks highly of fellow ILB Bradie James. DT Tank Johnson says he’s in good shape after going through an off-season program, which he couldn’t do in 2007. http://www.profootballtalk.com/category/rumor-mill/
