Heres a few reasons why I would not be against trading Boldin.
1) History of injuries, while all players are one play from retirement, Boldin is the walking definition of this. If you were the GM of a pro team, you would be crazy to give a player with his injury history the kind of money he and his agent are demanding.
2) Anytime you hire Rosenhaus, you are sending a message to the folks with the purse strings, SHOW ME THE MONEY, and then some. I agree he deserves a raise, but nothing like the figures they are demanding. Q is dead wrong at turning down the supposed 15 million guaranteed by the Cards. He has zero leverage in this matter.
3) Q and Fitz are clones at the WR position. One may argue who is better, or potentially better, the cards have a need for a true burner at one of these positions. Maybe Johnson will finally emerge this year, maybe not, but this group of WR's is to one dementional. Secondaries do not fear our deep threat, and will keep everything in front of them with tight man to man.
4) Get some value for him to help the overall team. If we were only 1-2 guys away, I wouldn't trade him. But we are several, and one player does not a team make.
Thats my 2 cents. Fire away.
