Guy is the best slot receiver in the league right now, and I’m not sure it’s even particularly close. The no-look catch he made in the red zone against the Titans was just absolutely ridiculous. I never watched him at Pitt much, but I can see why he broke all of Larry Fitzgerald’s records.

He’s currently 2nd in the league in receptions (54), and 9th in receiving yds (584). The only category he’s not top 10 in is TD’s (he’s 15th with 3). Just wanted to give our best WR some props instead of arguing over the other guys.

The way Burrow attacks the middle of the field, many of us saw this a match made in heaven.  Boyd has great toughness, hands, route precision, and has started to emerge as a leader.  I believe only one team has put their best cover guy on him (the Ravens) and the Bengals didn't have many answers to it.  Tee Higgins is really starting to emerge as a strong #2 outside.  

I think moving forward (this year) that Tate should get a lot of snaps over Green.  We want to develop the guy and see what we have moving forward.  I love Tate for his massive catch radius and his great hands.  

The one big piece that would still be missing is a speedster for gadget plays and to stretch the defense, but I feel they can address that in the draft in perhaps the fourth round.
