Chiefs Would You Trade Our 3rd Rnd Pick For Boldin? - Page 4

Marco Polo · 01-22-2010, 09:44 AM

Per Rotoworld:

Beat writer Kent Somers expects the Cardinals to be "earnest in their efforts to trade" Anquan Boldin this offseason.

Their best offer last year was reportedly a third-round pick and another player, and Somers suspects that offer might be enough to do the trick this time around. Boldin, 29, has been injury prone as he enters the final year of his contract. The Cardinals are 6-2 without him over the past two years, and they're confident in Steve Breaston and Early Doucet replacing his production. Jan. 22 - 10:34 am et

Since we have an upper third round pick, perhaps we don't need to send a player along with it?

No freakin' way. I'd rather have Doucet, by a mile.

Boldin is unreliable at this stage in his career. By the time the Chiefs are ready to compete, he'll be 30 or 31 and I'd rather have a 24 year old receiver on the team at that time than a guy in his 30's.

With the fifth pick in the third round of the 2010 draft, the Chiefs have the opportunity to select a player that will be with the team for a decade.

Not two years.

Im just going to throw this out there for shits and giggles. Everyone knows hes not currently happy with the organization and the lack of a long term contract. He feels wronged by the Cards for giving Fitz it, and not him. In his mind I believe, however wrong it might be, that he thinks he is the same calibur player as Fitz.

Whos to say that once he gets his contract and feels appreciated that he wont play through some of those injuries that held him out the past couple of years. Maybe he just used them as an excuse to not play for a team he wants out of. Not saying thats a good or bad thing, just that if we give him the contract he desires he may have a 'healthy' season again. Just throwing it out there.

Flame away.

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.

I think he's actually in his prime right now. 29 isn't that old for the type of receiver that Boldin is. I wouldn't give up more than a 3rd, but I'd give up our 3rd for him. He's been hurt and I was actually talking about that in another thread. But the guy is worth a 3rd. Let him heal up from that hamstring injury, and I expect him to have a good year.

Jerry Jones had a hard on for Williams since his UT days. He wanted him and was willing to give up whatever to get him. The 1st, 3rd and 5th that he gave up for him was insane though. However, that doesn't mean that just because Jerry Jones loved a guy that every team in the league will do the same.

Conversely, nobody, and I mean nobody, has a hard on for a guy who is one infraction away from a massive suspension because he likes to beat up women and, perhaps more importantly, is also an immature team cancer that thinks he's better than the team itself.

Mile High is high as he continues to think that any team in the league will give up a first rounder for Marshall.

Not a chance --that 3rd rd pick in this draft is like a mid 2nd in most other years.
Spend the money on wilfolk

he wasn't listing Alex Magee as a wide receiver, he used Magee's name because he was our 3rd round pick last year.

"would you trade a 3rd round pick for Boldin?"

he was saying that WR Boldin > DE Magee type player in the 3rd round.

Titty Meat · 01-22-2010, 12:39 PM

Whoops didn't see this thread. Yes i'd trade a 3rd for Boldin, re-sign Chambers and dump Bowe for a 2nd.

Love it.

Keep dreaming that a team is giving a #1 for Marshall.

Make some sense please for the love of god.

It's a 3rd round pick. It's not a 2nd "in other other years".

Jesus.

And money isn't an issue at all. We have alloted the lowest amount of dollars to players in the entire NFL.

well, that's more games than the average chiefs draft pick plays in anyway, so why not?

**bevischief** · 01-22-2010, 12:51 PM

How do we know that he will turn around his act if he comes here to get paid?

Titty Meat · 01-22-2010, 12:51 PM

Keep in mind if you trade for Boldin you'll also have to pay him a new contract.

but but thats not the CP way, we should trade for him, let him play out this year and if he plays well with no injuries we should franchise him and try to work out a long term deal then. RIGHT?
