Before we jump off bridges remember who his agent is. Not the first time a Rosenhaus client has said I'll never sign with you again in an effort to get more money.
But on the surface doesn't sound good.
He met with all of his clients on the Cardinals, as well as coach Ken Whisenhunt. Rosenhaus told me he also met with GM Rod Graves in the Valley Wednesday evening before making the drive to Flagstaff.
It was his first trip here, and he was impressed. However, he's not any closer to a deal for receiver Anquan Boldin. Rosenhaus said there are significant issues to resolve but it's a positive that the two sides are still talking.
Rosenhaus catches some heat in some corners, but Graves has always had a good working relationship with him. Rosenhaus doesn't close down conversations, and he's known for getting deals done.
Nothing like alienating the heart and soul of the team, somebody that this franchise trotted out as the connsumate leader and team captain.
Major kudos to RG and the front office for keeping the core of the team together. Looks like we will not only lose our best defensive player in Dansby, but also one of the few guys that has ever come here and wanted to change the culture. Two steps forward, three steps back...SOC

Boldin can take his pity party somewhere else.
They told Boldin flat out that negotiate with us now in December or you will have to wait. What did Boldin and Drew tell Graves, "We will wait until Fitz gets his new deal."
What a big difference to what Drew stated just yesterday.
Never thought I would see the day that Boldin would be seen as the butthole in these negotiations more so then his agent Drew.
We should have traded Boldin before the draft when the WR market was at its highest especially since not a single WR was taken in the 1st round.
Why does Crayton's name keep coming up??????? People here HATED BJ for his clutch drops during the regular season. Please take a look at the Cowboy's playoff game last year and fill me in on your thoughts of Crayton's performance. I say NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!Well the cowboys are intrested in boldin we could try and trade him Crayton wouldn't be a horrible player and maybe another player or draft pick in return
This is not on RG, completely, or the Cards. It's as much Boldin's fault as their's. He was tendered an extension last season and turned it down. He says his stance now is not about money...but, then why did he turn down the previous extension? Things just don't add up with this story.
I'm not saying that RG is the best GM in the league...heck, he's hardly average...but, I don't think he's got the capability of outright lying to a player, especially of Boldin's caliber. JMO.
What? Great idea! Let's trade the malcontent with three years left on his contract for the malcontent with one year left on his contract! You should be the GM. Stupid Ron Graves.Lets trade boldin for Lito Shepard and than draft someone like Rashard Mendenhall. Oh wait.....its not March anymore.....DOH!
If he decides to be a malcontent,
