I wouldn't play it that way. It would be better to take a project in a later round -- they have Lafell as their WR#2 for the moment (and our real #2 is Eifert). I'd take Boyd if he fell to us in the 2nd. I know the coaches met with Daniel Braverman -- he's undersized but outworks other players, so that could be another option in 2 or later. That said, I'd prefer Charone Peake -- he's faster and bigger than Braverman and will probably be around after the 3rd round. Peake's issue is he is an underachiever, but maybe that works -- you get a WR#2 who isn't demanding the ball all the time.
