I think Boyce has the talent to be an NFL WR. I think his speed was evident in the fact that in every game I saw him play he consistently beat DB's in deep coverage, getting behind DB's at least a couple of times. Personally I think the fact he didn't make the final roster says more about the guys in front of him than his own personal talent. (hard to believe I just said that after last season ). I wouldn't be surprised to see him get another shot either here or elsewhere when the inevitable injuries occur.
The player I think he compares to the most to me is Brandon Tate, who has carved out a very nice career as a back up WR/ST's guy with the Bengals running a simpler offense. 2 final points.
I think the Baron's post has some merit. I think in a league where most of the talent is pretty much on the same level for 90% of the guys, confidence plays a huge part in the success or failure of a player. Right now I don't think Boyce is playing with a lot of confidence right now.
It also says a lot about something I've been saying for a long time about WR's. There are a lot of decent guys out there. Brian Tyms isn't an anomaly. You can find guys like him all the time in the league. The raw talent is out there, whether it develops or can fit the system is another matter entirely. You DON'T have to spend first round picks to find adequate WR's.
