According to Fox Sports, the Baltimore Ravens have given an ultimatum to wide receiver Anquan Boldin: Take a pay cut or get released Tuesday.

The Ravens are looking to reduce Boldin's $7.5 million salary-cap number to increase their chances of re-signing free-agent linebacker Dannell Ellerbe and safety Ed Reed. Boldin, who played a big part in Baltimore's Super Bowl title run, is scheduled to earn $6 million in 2013.

The Ravens were expected to keep Boldin after the team didn't have to use the franchise tag on quarterback Joe Flacco, who signed a six-year, $120.6 million deal.

In the playoffs, Boldin caught 22 passes for 380 yards receiving (95 yards per game) and four touchdowns. He has led Baltimore in receiving yards in each of the past three seasons since being traded from Arizona.

Boldin, 32, said last month that he would retire if he was cut by the Ravens. Since the Ravens won the Super Bowl, linebacker Ray Lewis and center Matt Birk have retired and Baltimore has released guard Bobbie Williams.
I realize Boldin said he would retire but so did Brett Faaaaaahvre and Randy Moss. Boldin would be 100x the receiver Baldwin is and it would not cost any draft pics.

Need more speed boldin ain't it

Hog's Gone Fishin 03-09-2013 10:38 AM

Alex Smith would benefit with Boldin to throw to.

crazycoffey 03-09-2013 10:38 AM

Mike Wallace instead

No, gimme speed... we dont need another power forward, we need a greasy fast little point guard who can score from anywhere on the court.

I would be shocked if they threw big money at a FA WR.

They just have to get production out of Baldwin. (Anyone brings up moving to TE gets negged)

more like Bowe

Not at 32-33 yo. A one year contract maybe? I don't think he would live up to the expectations if he came here.


Baldwin seriously needs coached up or we do need find someone else. I'd be on his ass this offseason and not let up. See if he can come around or not. Coaching was piss poor last year so this is why I want to give Baldwin the benefit of the doubt that he can still turn it around and be productive for us. Also shit QB play didn't help any.

Sully 03-09-2013 10:47 AM

He played some QB in college, didn't he?
Worth a shot. Lets see his arm!

/sarcasm

Didn't he say he'd retire if released?
