There’s no one better at not catching the ball than Dez.He’s the Dez Bryant of UNLV Football.
Seems to drop a lot of balls.
You can be an incredibly good college receiver and not be an NFL guy. Randy Gatewood was fantastic. Damon Williams was pretty good. I thought Wolf was as good as a receiver as we've had, pure money, Flair... the other guys you've named. Nate Turner....Kinda seems like the M.O. with UNLV wide-outs. All the way back to Ervin Johnson...or Phillip Payne and Ryan Wolfe. ... Just doesn't seem like things pan out....NFL wise.
(Insert 'Lurking' emoji here...)
Ah, Davis. He was recent but his name eluded me. And you are right, that's the HUGE difference... his hands aren't great as it is, but he not going to battle for it. I loved those other guys.Most of the other guys listed competed for the ball much better. Nate was a beast, devonte davis really did too. I dont see that much from Boyd, thought it was youth a couple years back - but his battling for a contested ball is not there.
Boyd is at his best when he is not the primary receiver. He doesn't win the battles for 50/50 balls like many of the receivers listed above could. He is not a "possession" type receiver.
He runs pretty good routes and he does have speed. Not the greatest with pushed around by defenders, and I think the scouting report is out on him.
If he is getting the best corner and/or safety help, I think he will struggle. Because of this I'm not sure if he truly is an NFL guy.
