Is Boykin playing out his final days under center? | FOX Sports
One former NFL scout, Bucky Brooks, had this to say about Boykin at the next leve.
"I think with Boykin it could be a position he's previously played, either wide receiver or running back," Brooks wrote. "He and Braxton Miller are in the same category, kind of a hybrid. Most people will take those guys and make them receivers, just because the transition is easier. The transition to running back can be a little more challenging in terms of bulking up to run it between the tackles, and being a factor in pass protection. I see him as a guy who could play in the slot, but also be a gadget guy, and someone who can help on special teams."
