Hard to square some of the knocks on Broyld with his actual performance.  
It is fair to question his speed, and his hands are smaller than ideal for a WR.  I get that he has not met the high expectations when recruited.
 
On the positive side, he is one of the very few frosh in a skill position, in the entire Marrone-Shafer era, who did anything at all (apart from kick-returning).  It is a short list -- Ishmael, Estime, Broyld, Phillips and Lemon. In rushing by a true frosh RB, the list in that era is only Phillips and Broyld.
As a soph, Broyld put up 52 catches -- tied for most ever by a sophomore receiver at SU.   
As a junior, Broyld was injured at the end of the first quarter of the 4th game (Maryland).  To that point, he had 15 catches for 174 yards -- leading the team in catches.

We have more depth and balance in 2015, but Broyld will be one of our principal weapons.   Expecting 40 plus catches, more than 600 yards receiving & rushing, and a handful of TDs.
