To me, Clark Boyd’s performance has been pretty good so far. Granted, his stats may not seem all that exciting, but that is mainly due to his operating in James Angler’s shadow. With an unconventional start, getting signed to the Buccaneers during the off season, Boyd still wound up in the NSFL Draft, getting picked by the Sarasota Sailfish. Through his first season of play, Clark saw exponential improvement in his performance. From dropped passes and very short gains in his first few games, he scored 2 touchdowns in his last 3 games. If he was able to play the whole season like he did in Myrtle Beach’s last game, he could be in contention for Tight End of the Year. Sadly, this is not how it shook out. However, Clark Boyd’s future remains bright. I’m not certain that he’ll get the call-up next season, but the retirement of Johnny Blaze definitely presents an opening for both Angler and Boyd.
If Clark does not get called up, and instead plays again for the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers, he’ll be a powerhouse at TE. By that point he should be at his TPE cap and thus start at the top of his field. A successful season awaits should Clark play down. This doesn’t sound so bad, because a run at TEotY sounds nice, and would help his trajectory into the NSFL.
If Clark does manage to get called up, he could very well face baptism by fire. However, I don’t think that he will. His most important attributed should be close to, if not already, maxed out. In that case he may not be great, but he’ll be able to play his position relatively well. Once again, he might find himself in James Angler’s shadow, but once reaching stat maxes, the playing field will even out. I don’t think that Clark will make much of a splash if he plays for Sarasota next season, but I also doubt that he’ll be on the bench the whole season.
In the long term, I’m hoping to get Clark Boyd into awards conversations. Who wouldn’t? Over the course of his career, some Pro Bowl appearances would be great, and a Hall of Fame run would be outstanding. But for now, there is no way of telling if any of it will come true. All I can say for sure is that everything seems to be on track for Clark right now, and that he ended his first true season on a high note.

I joined the league towards the tail end of S21, and I set myself up as a S22 rookie. I was picked up towards the end of the season by Myrtle Beach, and began earning TPE shortly after. I think everything has gone pretty well for Clark Boyd so far. He’s improved greatly and is sure to find success going forward. Personally, I’ve had a great time with the league so far. Starting out, I was able to get a lot of help from @Jay_Doctor and @Bigred1580. After Clark was drafted by the Sarasota Sailfish, both @Frostbite and @RainDelay were helpful and encouraging. I was able to earn the position of Wiki Publicist, and working under @White Cornerback has been a great experience as well. I also represented MB as a DSFL Awards Committee member, work that I enjoyed. I’ve gotten comfortable writing media and making graphics, both of which turned out to be more rewarding than I initially thought. So far, I’ve had a great time with pretty much every aspect of the NSFL, even losing money at the casino and coming dead last in my fantasy group.
However, I do think that there are improvements that can be made. When I was starting out, the Rookie Guide that @TeyonSchavari wrote up was extremely helpful. I was able to create and start updating my character right away. Past that, I was pretty lost. I think that the forum pages themselves need to be reorganized. I found it pretty difficult to navigate around the forums in order to get my work done. Over time, I figured most of it out, but the site seems to lack the intuitiveness that would make joining both easier and more appealing. But, I digress. As I said I was able to figure it all out, and looking back at it, it’s really not that bad. Sure there can be great improvements made, and from what I understand, they just might be made.
What I can say for certain is that the NSFL is a great time. As a college student who’s been stuck at home for months now, this has been a fantastic way to spend time. Outside of the league, the community is great. I’ve had the pleasure of playing in games set up by @ScorpXCracker and @`To12143`.
I’m looking forward to what I may do next, because it seems like there is a lot of opportunity for those who are looking for work to do. And I thank you all for being so welcoming.
