Boyd was a second round pick last year and caught 54 balls, lafell caught 64.  But Boyd caught 66% of his targets, lafell caught just under 60%.

So younger with more potential, similar results, cheaper WR rookie contract.

I didn't mean to imply LaFell for Brown straight up. I just meant LaFell instead of Boyd.
Add next year's 2nd rounder onto LaFell for Brown. I think that'd be fair.

And to get to your comparison of Boyd and LaFell last year, you conveniently left out a couple critical details that separate them...
LaFell - 64 rec, 862 yards, 6 TD
Boyd - 54 rec, 603 yards, 1 TD

You have to factor in the actual yardage and TD totals, you can't just say they are very close just because of 10 receptions.
LaFell had 42% more yards than Boyd, and he had 600% of the TDs.

And so far in 2017, LaFell has had more than double the yardage than Boyd, so it's not like Boyd is trending in the right direction.

If I'm in win-now mode, I'm going LaFell over Boyd.
