FalconFanSince1969 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 The Miami Herald's Armando Salguero reports the Eagles are "willing to trade" slot CB Brandon Boykin.Boykin is another Andy Reid carryover, and coach Chip Kelly is intent on building the Eagles his way. The former fourth-round pick is just 24 and has finished second and 19th, respectively, in PFF's cornerback rankings each of the past two seasons. At 5'10/185, he's a slot corner-only, but a good one. Salguero mentions the Dolphins as a team that would have interest in Boykin. Slot corner issues would be solved immediately with Boykin. It would also alleviate the need to even draft a CB really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clark Kent™ Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I'd be okay with it depending on the asking price. Alford dang sure isn't getting moved to NB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFanSince1969 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 To short......... No..........How many tall slot corners do you see? Slot corners have to have change of direction and suddenness to keep up with shifty slot receivers..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawggone Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Height is not an issue with this guy. His last year at UGA, he simply was Da man. He played WR, RB, CB, KR, PR. And he did them well. His safety against Mich St in the bowl game was unbelievable. He has done very well for Philly and he is a player. Plain and simple. U aren't taking anybody near his level with a mid to late round pick, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monolith2001 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I'd take him but who would we trade in return? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulitik Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 One of my favorite Dawgs ever. I'd love him, but I'm not sure he has the measurables Dan Quinn looks for. He is the prototypical TD tyoe of corner. I wouldn't be upset for the right pice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Tony G. Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I went to HS with him. I'd love to have him at nickel. Only issue is there was a story last offseason about him wanting to play outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DurtyBurdz155 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Boykin would make this secondary better, I would be down for it. He can play a little safety too. Very versatile player since his UGA days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

putnam6 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Been watching Boykin since he was a freshman at Fayette County, he would be a great addition to the secondary, IF THE PRICE WAS RIGHT. 4th or 5th round pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFanSince1970 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Should have drafted him with one of the Julio picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcon82111 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Would be okay only for a 5th rounder or less draft pick . no higher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFanSince1969 Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 I'm not sure why some of you are insistent on thinking that we can just thrown them a 6th or 7th for the guy.The guy is good. 2nd and 19th in PFF rankings, next to nothing salary and you're only willing to give a 6th or 7th?

Scruitt Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 He is a beast, and a weapon on st and offense sometimes. Would love love love if we made this move. Dude is a tough guy and sure tackler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
