02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The Baltimore Ravens' run-heavy, play-action based offense, which prioritizes tight end blocking and versatility, aligns well with Boyle's skill set.

Best role

Boyle's immediate role is a versatile blocking tight end, capable of playing in-line or as an H-back, with the ceiling to become a high-impact run-game enforcer and reliable short-yardage target.

Wrong fit

An Air Raid or pass-heavy spread offense where his blocking prowess would be underutilized and his limited receiving upside exposed.

Boyle's fit with the Ravens exemplifies how a tight-end-centric, power-run scheme can maximize the value of a player with elite blocking traits and sufficient receiving ability.
