Said it before I could about the comparison of Jefferson to Boyd. Plus Boyd is a big 6'2" practically 6'3" and a crisp route
runner with great hands. Boyd has had some very good seasons with Dalton throwing to him, I cannot imagine how good
of a season he can have with Burrow. Boyd is the one Receiver we seem to be able to count on health wise and he is clutch.
Mixon should also have a monster season catching the ball. Burrow loves throwing to the RB as well as the Slot.
Throwing to our RBs is the single greatest improvement that I think will happen this year on offense. Stupid to take Mixon off the field on 3rd down and just keep Gio in to pass protect. Even if Gio was adept at pass protection and Mixon was not, they are better served attacking the defense by spreading them out with more targets. Burrow is so quick and decisive. This will be a huge improvement. Sure hope they actually stick with that idea.
