.When the Packers where desimated with injuries all season long with Cobb,Jones and Finely missing games, this guy came in and met the challenge. When Rodgers went down he still produced. 2014 he took a backseat to a WR corp that is one of the best in the league. He has shown that the pressure isn't to much for him when called upon. Playing well on a Superbowl caliber team is something to be considered. We are one more injury away from this WR  corps being total crap. This guy needs to get his chance and stick.

Boykin is our 2nd best WR we can only hope the coaching staff is actually hiding that fact and plan on starting him week 1 opposite Funchess.....

What's also hard to forget is...Smitty...with him here we'd be in fantastic shape...4-94-1 63 yard TD last game...it's still sickening.

Contrary to red herrings that have been thrown in to muddy the waters because of agenda driven, ulterior motives,  the 2013 Jarrett Boykin is Jarrett Boykin. 

His 2012 and 2014 season basically cancel one another out.  They really are too small of a sample to judge.  Not to mention that he was hurt at the time in 2014.

Nobody here has "agenda driven, ulterior motives."

I always enjoy reading you post about others having an agenda. Worth a quality chuckle at least.

Nobody knows which Boykin is the real Boykin at this point. He may get the opportunity to show us.

You just really don't understand the financial/lockeroom part of the whole Smitty thing still, do you?

I understand everything my post was about how much his loss has hurt our offense(we have no explosive players at the skill positions)...nowhere did I say anything about why or how he was released. Smitty was/is an all time fan favorite/best player his loss still sucks...dood did get into another fight in the preseason...he may be getting "worse" in that regard as he ages...he seems to give even less fugs than he used to.

Boykin had barely any playing time in either of those years.  Hardly any! So if someone bases anything on those two years in and of themselves, then they just aren't that smart.  If you take his numbers in their totality, which is the smarter and generally accepted means of evaluation (not to mention taking things like injury into account),  then you get a clearer picture.  It's that simple. 

I can accept anyone telling me that Boykin is a JAG,  or that Boykin is a WR4 at best,  but don't tell me that he sucks based on 2014 or 2012 because it makes little sense.

You know I have to bust your chops a little.

I don't think he sucks. Considering our options right now at the position, I'm willing to give just about anyone a shot at this point.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
