He does need Higgins and Chase to help take coverage away though (as would most WRs).
Ideally for me, Iosivas or Burton is outside though, not Irwin.
Irwin is a little too pedestrian to be an outside guy, IMO.
Irwin doesn’t have the IQ or feet to get to those spots at the times Boyd got to those spots
I know dude has drops but Boyd was really good here even in his last 2 years. Dude was elite at finding soft spots and becoming a bailout option for Burrow. We don’t have a true slot WR and we underestimated what that meant and how important Boyd was
