Bengals add Boyd

Tyler Boyd Headshot

The Bengals added WR Tyler Boyd with the 55th pick of the 2016 NFL Draft. Boyd has 1 of the best production profiles in the WR class. He’s Pittsburgh’s all-time leader in career receptions (254) and receiving yards (3,361), despite spending just 3 years there. He also chipped in on the ground, totaling 520 rushing yards and a score on 63 attempts (8.3 YPC). But Boyd isn’t particularly big or athletic at 6’1, 197 pounds with a SPARQ score in the 34th percentile among WRs. He figures to top out as a #2 WR at the next level. But he has a shot to capture that gig right away in Cincinnati. Only Brandon LaFell stands between Boyd and a starting job.
