From Drew R...

"We are pleased to announce today that we have re-signed Jeremy Shockey [to a representation agreement]. Regarding Anquan Boldin, let me say that I have great respect for him. I'm hopeful that we can work things out and he will return to the Rosenhaus Sports family in the near future. We are proud to continue to represent his brother D.J. Boldin. We would also like to take this opportunity to announce that Will Allen has signed a 2-year contract extension with the Dolphins worth $16.2 million."

What a tool...

Well, now we'll see if it was Q or Drew calling the shots. I suspect Boldin's stance won't change much.

...unless it's already changed and this is the first step towards repairing his image--firing Rosenhaus and blaming it all on him.

Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy!

Has Q seen the light? Has he seen Rosenass as the Dark Side of the Force that he is? :jedi: I hope this means that Q is ready to do it the right way now. I would love for the Cards to extend him just to burn Rosenass.

I read that the reason that Q let him go was because he didn't feel like Drew did his job in getting Q a new deal or forcing a trade. Sounds to me like Q is still doing anything in his power to force this deal and may think another agent can get it done.

My stance hasn't changed. Hopefully this means Q is ready to play nice and wait a year like what we have said. But I doubt it. This was all brought on cause Q felt like his window for the huge contract was closing. Waiting another year doesn't solve anything for him.

I'd wager this is the same as why Dansby fired his agent. Both of them had their expectations set too high by these agents. I'm still not sure whether Dansby is convinced he can get that $20 million to give his family security, and I wouldn't be surprised if BOldin is using this as a way to step up getting off the team he thinks did him wrong. I will remain hopeful that he's doing this to repair his image, but I won't call this good news until the reason behind it is clear.

I'm guessing that Q signs with Tom Condon (Fitz agent), and Condon works not only a deal for Q, but also works to get Fitz restructured (as promised by Fitzy)...all at the same time....

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and wow what a passive aggressive punk saying "we are proud to still represent DJ Boldin"

I'm gonna laugh so hard when DJ drops him and goes to whoever Anquan signs with.

This is either a good move...or a bad move. On one hand, maybe Boldin fired Rosenhaus for his scum tactics, and the effect that has on his reputation. Or, Rosenhaus was fired because Boldin hasn't been traded yet, and Boldin wants resolution ASAP. I personally think it's a combination of the two, but whatever the case may be, at least we wont have to deal with anymore Boldin/Rosenhaus BS.

Man this is good news. I hope we can get Boldin signed soon and forget about all the BS that Rosenass has put us through with Boldin.

Regardless of whether this works out in the Cards favor not, I am happy to see Rosenhaus fired.

I love how his statement sandwiched Q between the Shockey thing and Q's brother. Whatever.

Dave Burns said in his live chat that SPECULATION from ESPN is that Q has already contacted: burnsy aka the commish: espn speculated that he has spoken wiht kennard mcguire, tom condon, ben dogra, and two of larry fitzgerald's agents, eugene parker and paul lawrence.

you're right...Condon is Leinarts guy.....my bad...

It's all good, turns out you were right too in that Q has contacted Fitz's guy. I would be surprised if he didn't go with Parker. He has already shown himself to be more than capable of getting a Cardinal WR a great deal.
