I still can't wrap my head around the fact that apparently every young receiver we bring in is better than Jarrett Boykin! I mean all the guy does is constantly prove his value to the team; we've all seen it. And yet you really think he wouldn't have made the team had Abbrederis remained healthy?!? I guess I shouldn't be surprised though... you didn't seem to think he'd make the roster in January before we added more receivers from the draft either:

I can't imagine a single scenario in which Boykin doesn't take the nr. 3 receiver role this year, apart from him shooting Rodgers or something, much less that he doesn't make the team.

It's pretty much this way every year, though. We bring in some shiny late rounders and UDFAs in at WR and they're the next Donald Driver.

For a year, at least, 'till the new crop comes in.

I mean, Tori Gurley, Shaky Smithson, Chastin West, Diondre Borel, Miles White...

Boykin is the perfect example, really. He was that shiny new UDFA just two years ago.

When he was given his chance due to injuries to the guys ahead of him he stepped up. Now he just has to keep it up and he may be able to move off that list.

In all fairness to those other guys they did not have the chance that Boykin did to prove themselves.
