Boldin would provide a sililar service in adding a legitimate playmaker at WR to force opponents to respect the pass. When they do, JC will have a field day and shred opposing defenses with the run.

We acquired a 2nd for Gonzo, what's wrong with giving up less for a younger Boldin?

He's on the back side of his career (not saying at the end of it, mind you), he's been injury prone, and he doesn't have a long-term contract so he'll be looking for money. I'd rather see the Chiefs find a younger free agent or draft someone. If the Chiefs were ready to make their run and they were a couple of players away, I'd go for it, but not under the current circumstances.
