Had a pretty damn good rookie season last year to boot! If we had to check down to Boyd for 8-10 yds then I would consider that a win in most situations.
I"ll be honest, I don't know much about Malone but it sounds to me, he is a 1 year project. I guess we will see.

He had a long of 30 yards on the year, his 11.2 YPC was 5th on the team amongst WR's and tied for 186th in the league, he had as many turnovers as he did TD's(1), and he was a non factor in the red zone.  He had an ok year, but his production dipped significantly with AJ out of the lineup and 1 TD is horrible for a #3 WR.
