[QUOTE="FrankRizzo, post: 505747, member: 2232"] I have liked Boykin since last year's training camp, and I believe Jeremy Ross is also very very good. His fumble killed us in San Fran, but I forgive him..... still has a lot of ability, and our #1-5 WR's are set. [url]http://espn.go.com/blog/nfcnorth/post/_/id/58678/packers-rookie-wrs-still-a-mystery[/url] ......[B]Boykin[/B] was the last receiver to make the team last season but was used sparingly. He has caught just about everything thrown his way in the first week of camp. That continued Friday night, when he had perhaps his best practice to date.

On a four-play scoring drive, Ross had catches of 15 yards on consecutive plays. Boykin and Ross also have been given extensive roles on special teams.
