This makes no sense to me.
Potential playmaker...AT THE VERY LEAST...and upgrade to our return game...for a 5th round pick...and we already have three of them...and the chances of us drafting a player better than Ginn in the 5th is low at best.
Of course I'm the one that wanted to trade our 2B for Anquan Boldin and no one else seemed to agree because he's ALMOST 30 (lol)...so what do I know...draft picks are golden...nevermind the fact that they are all total, complete crapshoots and we'll be lucky to see anything after our #5 come even close to the NFL player that Boldin already is...

He's been in the league for three years and he's not proven himself to be a consistent playmaker. If the Chiefs trade for him and he likely continues dropping balls, he'll be sitting on the bench, like Bradley and Bowe and Wade last year.
So at that point, you're giving up a 5th round pick in a deep draft for a guy that might touch the ball 7-10 times a game. That's too much compensation based on a whim.
A 7th round pick? Sure. But knowing that he'll likely be released due to the Brandon Marshall trade, I'd bet most teams are willing to sit back and wait for that to happen.
