Quote59 – That's Brandon Boykin's success rate, according to Football Outsiders. Success rate is defined as "the share of targets on which the corner prevented a successful gain (45 percent of needed yards on first down, 60 percent on second down and 100 percent on third down)."

Boykin's mark ranked tied for fifth in the entire NFL last season, behind only New England's Darrelle Revis, Indianapolis' Vontae Davis, Buffalo's Corey Graham and Houston's Kareem Jackson.

I remember Boykin saying he felt like he played better in 2014 than he did the year before. Many looked at interceptions (six in 2013; one in 2014), but if you look at success rate, the numbers back up his claim (he was at 56 percent in 2013). It doesn't seem like Eagles coaches are going to give him a shot on the outside, but Boykin will likely enter free agency at the age of 25 after this season, and someone's going to get a really good corner.

this makes me absolutely sick

very limited sample size but i thought boykin really struggled on the outside last preseason. love him in the nickle though.

He's going to hold the head coach accountable.

Accountable, goddamn it!

or perhaps the gm for getting rid of the most talented player on the roster at the homegrown age of 25

smeags · June 03, 2015, 11:53:07 AM

and chip cares about that.

ice grillin you · June 03, 2015, 12:10:57 PM

talent?...clearly not

Rome · June 03, 2015, 12:38:31 PM

Yeah, how dare anyone suggest DeMarcus Murray is talented? Fiddlesticks! The sky is falling! Dogs/cats & whatnot!

ice grillin you · June 03, 2015, 01:11:56 PM

hes good but hes not overly talented....i mean hes talented in the sense that hes a skill position player in the nfl

smeags · June 03, 2015, 01:15:47 PM

nope, not doing it.

ice grillin you · June 03, 2015, 01:25:57 PM

luckily at running back you dont need to be able cut like barry sanders or run as fast as gayle sayers or have the size/speed combo of adrian peterson to be successful in the nfl....so demarco murray should have a huge year if the qb position and OL cooperate
