Too soon to tell

He pops on tape, i know its Northern Iowa. Just heard what his bench was. Im digging it for a 6rh rounder

NFL network completely skipped our pick.

Edit: ESPN, not NFL Network

Perfect replacement for Malcolm Roach at DT in run defense. Boyd was PFF’s highest graded college run defender the last two seasons. Explosive and great size to clog the interior (6’2/329). I like his pass rush upside.

NFL network completely skipped our pick.

Yes sir

 

[TruSaint]

This dude is solid muscle and as strong as anyone in the draft, fantastic piece to put next to Bresee moving forward

NFL network completely skipped our pick.

ESPN too, and on YT TV the selection graphic wasn't even shown because it was on non national commercials. Like it went from Saints Pick is in, and when the graphic came back it was Panthers on the clock... quite annoying.

I love this pick

Too soon to tell is chicken salad.

I love this pick. This is where you find real contributors for situational football, like a 2 down run defender. He's good value and fills a depth need.

Not explosive is what I read. Never seen him, just going off cbs detailed analysis.
Did say he’s very good a stacking blockers, stuffing the run.

 

[Ti Rider]

Great pick. He should slide right into the DT rotation. At 320 lb. he’s perfect to line up beside Bresee.

love this pick

He sounds like a great compliment to Bresee.

If he's better than the other Northern Iowa guy we drafted I'll be happy.

Great looking pick!
Boyd (6’2/329) possesses ideal size for an interior lineman and is not moved easily off his spot. He’s a six-year prospect who is among the older players in the class and will be 24 at the start of this season, making him one of the older prospects in the draft. Boyd is a solid+ run stopper who has shown an ability to take on multiple blockers and also tallied 10.5 sacks for his career. Per Pro Football Focus, he totaled 40 pressures in 2023. Boyd could earn a roster spot as added depth against the run, but his development as a pass rusher suggests there’s an added element to his game that can be tapped into.
