We can’t keep everyone and it seemed like losing Boyd was something we all generally accepted. How do we truly get better? Who can we afford to lose. Lots of questions to be answered this off-season and next.
I will say that I don't believe Burrow needs this kind of corp to be successful, but I also think the drop from Boyd to Irwin is quite substantial. Irwin is a fringe NFL player. I know many here like him, but he isn't very good. I think that is where the sweet spot lies. Burrow is likely making Irwin look better than he is already, and the problem is that he is a practice squad caliber receiver.
