USA Today says Brandon Boykin Starts at Slot Corner...

So, apparently I missed something. According to the bright minds at USA today, Brandon Boykin is still on the Panthers...

Replacing Norman (4 INTs, two returned for TDs) will be a story line that hangs over the defense all season. The Panthers used three consecutive draft choices on cornerbacks. Don't be surprised to see James Bradberry, a long-armed second-round pick, or Daryl Worley, a third-round selection with good size, start opposite Bene Benwikere. After breaking his leg in December, Benwikere is now the top outside corner for the Panthers. Robert McClain, a late-season addition, will figure into the mix prominently. Free agent Brandon Boykin will play slot corner. At safety, veteran Kurt Coleman had seven interceptions, tied for best in the NFC. With veteran Roman Harper not re-signed, expect Tre Boston to start.

    • So... what metrics for production do you believe display these issues/limitations best? Are we only using total passing yards, height, and weight thresholds? If so, then what are those thresholds?
    • I mean as far as his size goes it's all over his tape bouncing up and down on his toes in and around the pocket trying to see the field and defenses know this as well as we do but if folks here want to live in never never land and pretend it's not a thing that's their prerogative. Even our head coach has made it a key focal point to get his footwork under control. But it's still something Bryce is going to be tested on early and often no matter how many keystrokes anyone here commits to the narrative it isn't an issue.
    • It speaks volumes that when asked to define a clear performance threshold the responses instead fixate on Bryce's size. It reinforces what’s been clear for a while now... that for some, it has never been nor will it ever be about production. Any struggles will always be chalked up to his frame, and any strong play will be downplayed or disqualified via highly mobile goalposts.
