Jarrett Boykin finished third on the Packers receiving in terms of targets (77) receptions (49) and yards (681). With James Jones out of the picture, and Aaron Rodgers back healthy, Boykin has a shot at putting up some serious numbers in 2014.
With Rodgers sitting out the last half of 2013, Boykin became a favorite target for back up quarterbacks in 2013. At one point, Boykin had an 11 week stretch where he averaged 7.6 fantasy points per game, giving him a 32nd ranking among receivers.
According to ESPN, he’s only owned in 43.5% of leagues which means he should be available for you to draft if necessary but, could also mean he’s available on a waiver wire pickup.
Boykin could be a great nab if you have the opportunity.
