If i'm Boyd, i don't know how much interest a 29 yr old WR is going to get on the open market and he has a pretty good gig going here.
You're leaving out the cap savings, purposely? Mixon would be 10.1M in cap savings post 6/1 next year, Boyd $8.9M. Both/either/neither could be options if they needed the cap space next year and had good backup options. Yes, restructuring is also an option, but you don't see that very often with RBs.
