Hell yes, a 3rd rounder for Boldin should be a no brainer. Come on, he's younger than:
chambers
ochocinco
wayne
houshmanzadeh
coles
santana moss
randy moss
owens
ward
driver
All of which were extremely productive at Boldin's age and for year(s) after.
a year older than:
roddy white
wes welker
andre johnson
Who are still considered in the prime of their career.
The assumption we'd be buying a broken down car is ridiculous. We would be getting a proven, elite, veteran wide reciever to bring some leadership and playmaking to our offense at a position we obviously need. Any 3rd rounder is a gamble - this is not. We may not be 'on the verge', but if we're doing this right - we should be a playoff caliber team in 2012 when Boldin would still be a very viable #1 WR. I would take him over any wr past the 1st round in this year's draft.
