| PRO | CON |
|---|---|
| Prototype outside receiver with the ideal size and speed for the position. Moves incredibly well for his 6-foot-4 frame and explodes off the line of scrimmage. Plays with reliable hands and physicality at the point of attack. | Limited route tree. Was mostly used on in-breaking and deep seam routes. He rounds off his routes and wastes steps when changing direction. Also limited in yards after the catch or when losing defenders in the open field. |
OVERVIEW: The next in line from a program with plenty of recent NFL wide receiver talents, Boston certainly looks the part of a next-level outside receiver. He sat and learned from players like Rome Odunze and Jalen McMillan until he was finally utilized in 2024. Over the next two seasons, he tallied at least 830 receiving yards and nine touchdowns each year. Boston finished eighth in program history for career touchdown grabs (20) and showed why his consistency will be enough to get him selected high in the draft this April.
