Ravens could release Anquan Boldin for cap reasons

[Mulli]

They can always get Early Doucet to replace him.

It's a little LATE for Early

 

[GatorAZ]

It was just a cap move. You can't have 2 WRs with 8 figure contracts.

I know why we did it, I asked was so pissed off his last couple years here (I mean besides the contract stuff)...

Boldin says he will retire if cut by the Ravens

Q also said that if he gets cut he is going to retire.Says he won`t play anyplace else.

 

[Buckybird]

Still not certain why Q was frustrated with the Cards. I mean a "real reason" not just whining about a contract...

He said he was lied to by Graves & ownership.

Knowing what Boldin stands for I wouldn't doubt it.

Anquan Boldin just told me he will RETIRE if he is cut by the Ravens. They will be his last team. #NFL #Profootballtalk

Also, on Boldin's production, wasn't there a significant difference between when Cameron was calling plays and when the other guy took over?

I thought it was established that Cameron wasn't really featuring Boldin within the offense.

Edit: Caldwell. Couldn't think of his name.

Yes the production level went up once Cameron was fired.

 

[BigRedRage]

hope they resatructure and he keeps playing. I dont blame him tho, 2 sbs, one win and a reconstructed face, retiring early may be best.

 

[Cardinal Bob]

Seeing this quote from Quan in the ESPN article kinda hurts.


"I won't play in another uniform," Boldin said in an interview Friday on NBC Sports Radio. "We have a saying, once a Raven, always a Raven, and I'll always be a Raven."

[Jetstream Green]

Does not hurt me Bob, I'm a Cardinal fan before I will ever get down trodden over a player who left and wanted to leave. I appreciate Boldin immensely when he was a Card but could care less what uniform he chooses to retire now in.

 

[GuernseyCard]

Retire?

Talk is cheap. Bet he wouldn't turn down a call from NE, Denver or Green Bay.

I bet he would.

I bet he would.

We may see, whether Q's usual emotional outburst is matched with reality.

I dont think there is anything emotional about it. Its been known and talked about for quite some time that 7.7 million dollar cap figure he could be cut. This isn't some spur of the moment thing. Im sure he has been thinking about just that possibility for awhile now.

I don't see any way BAL management lets him go after that playoff/Superbowl run. He was amazing, nothing short of...

Agree. He will get restructured or extended.

Agree.

If I were a Ravens fan and they made Flacco the highest paid player in the league and had to cut Boldin, I'd be pissed.

 

[Shane]

I agree if it was just Flacco. But the team also has Ellerbee as a FA, Kruger, Ed Reed, Jacobey Jones has an inflated cap # too and a few others IIRC..

 

[GuernseyCard]

Agree. He will get restructured or extended.

That's my view, too.

But, if it doesn't happen, I won't take his retirement threat seriously until he files the papers.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

OT: Quan's got his feelings hurt again.

I'm sorry, but this is getting old...and seriously, "Once a Raven, always a Raven?" LOL

[schutd]

Whats getting old is everyone here sour grapes-in a dude who left his guts on the field for our team, regardless of how it ended. Can we please move on?

 

[RON_IN_OC]

I don't have sour grapes for Quan or how he left the team.
