Half of the top 10 WR prospects are true slot guys. If the right value falls or they justify BPA for a trade back...would they play Boyd outside? His best position is slot, but this class really limits your options. Does that make a guy like Chase, Marshall Jr. or even Nico Collins more valuable?

It really doesn't limit your options any more than if you take Chase in round 1 and try to come back for one of the 3rd tier OTs in round 2.
I don't think the whole slot/outside argument is that valid with a team that runs 3-4-5 WR sets. There are guys that can score and create mismatches from anywhere on the field.
Having multiple good slot players would be a good thing - especially if some of the receivers can multitask for some of the kind of a run but not really plays. There's no law against lining up in 10 or 01 personnel.
