Have seen the coaches mention that broyld will move back to the slot. I have mixed feelings about this because although he is a mismatch against linebackers he has struggled with slants and harder throws over the middle. Also it could limit touches to some degree for Estime who I believe needs to be on the field a whole lot. I mean Estime if he has a really good year is the type of player who can force defenses to change schemes( possibly swapping out a LB for DB with help over the top from a safety) just because of his speed which could really be a huge advantage for us.
If the change is because one of our young guys has performed well enough that the staff needs to get them on the field (Ishmael ??) then its probably a positive but I was hoping Broyld would really start to solidify his place in the receiving core. Splitting time/jack of all trades type of player with the other positions and possibly taking some touches away from Estime to me is a little concerning. God I hope that they don't swap Estime and Broyld in and out of the game based on down/distances. I don't think that type of plan would be a net positive.
Anyone else read the articles and have a concern about this?
