Boykin is really going to depend on how we use him. Against faster outside corners I think he’s going to lose the battle. He’s quicker than fast. He will win on back shoulder fades.
But watching his tape..... he’s a big ass slot WR. He can beat you with good route running and quickness.
Honestly. He reminds me of Colston. Can play on the outside, but if you put him on a LB, safety, or slot CB, he’s going to dominate them almost every time depending on the player.
If Roman uses him as an outside primarily guy, he’s gonna fail. If he uses him primarily as a slot, he will be productive. That’s what it comes to for me.
He’s not a Crabtree replacement, he’s a Snead replacement next year. Make no mistake about it.
We need to draft another dude high next year
