WR Jarrett Boykin
Dez Bryant will be back in Dallas for the 2015 season. Although the Cowboys franchised Bryant, one thing they still have to do is re-sign him to a long-term contract. When that happens, the Cowboys will have their No. 1 guy in place, but they still have to add more talent at the skill positions. Terrance Williams was nowhere to be found at times in 2014. He has problems catching with his hands and although the Cowboys do like him, it would be wise to add another receiver and one guy who wouldn’t cost that much money is Jarrett Boykin.
Playing for the Green Bay Packers for the entirety of his career, Boykin has shown the ability to play inside or outside. Both of these traits will come in good use for the Cowboys as his body is solid on the outside at 6-foot-2, 220 pounds and his catch-radius is bigger than most receivers and his catch-adjustment skills are also intriguing. Davante Adams took away Boykin’s job, but in Dallas, the Cowboys could have a guy who would be an excellent redzone option.
