I understand that last year was a wash due to injuries, but he is more than "basically a rookie" this year.  He has been working against NFL players for a year and a half.  The adjustment period should be over.

Ross is not a rookie. He played in 3 games in 2017 and had 1 start. He didn't catch any throws made his way in 2017 and had one run for 12 yards and fumbled it completing what I believe to be the worse statistical rookie year of any WR in NFL history; as a zero catch, zero fumble year would have been a better statistical year than Ross' 1st. He had negative fantasy points.

In 2018 he has two catches and one run for a total of 8 yards in 2 games.

Game 1
Ross 2 targets 1 catch for a 3 yard TD. Caught 50%.
Boyd 5 targets 3 catches. Caught 60%.

Game 2
Ross 4 targets 1 catch hauling in 25%
Boyd 9 targets 6 catches hauling in 67%
