I like to compare different players at a position, and in this case, it'd be slot WR.
Boyd averaged 11.7 YPR with the Bengals, so he is good to compare to.
We generally consider him a "good" slot guy.
Iosivas had a 13.3 YPR last year, so he might actually be more dynamic than a more standard/typical slot guy, and being in the slot and running those routes might be making it more difficult for him to get more open by having him on shorter routes and having more defenders around him vs being on the outside or better scheming?
For Iosivas to have a 13.3 YPR but only a long of 39 yards last year shows me he's been productive when making receptions and it's not just a few really long receptions skewing his YPR.

You may be correct and I am being overly critical. I have the concerns for the super athletic Murphy, superb on paper, but does not show up on game day film. I hoe Golden can unleash his athletic ability as well, we need him to be much better in 2025.
