Coach Mike McCarthy said he's "as high on [Jarrett] Boykin as anybody in our building." This should put the nail in free agent James Jones' Packers coffin. The head coach is a good guy to have in your corner, and Boykin appears to have made quite an impression. "He had a heck of a year, and I still think he has another jump in him. ... I've always liked Jarrett. I've always felt he had it," said McCarthy, who added that he sees Boykin evolving into an eventual No. 2 receiver. For now, he'll be the No. 3 man behind Jordy Nelson and slot receiver Randall Cobb. It's nearly an every-down role in the Packers' scheme, leaving Boykin with plenty of 2014 upside.
