Anquan Boldin could finally get dealt

It's always been a career goal of mine to pass along some nebulous "buzz" or "word on the street" that a respectable journalist would be too responsible to write.

My time has come.

The chatter at the Scouting Combine from a few places is that Anquan Boldin will finally get traded this offseason.

The notion isn't much different from what I wrote on the topic Wednesday, but now it's coming from people who know what they are talking about.

The Cardinals held out for a big trade package for Boldin last offseason and never came close to dealing him.

The feeling now is that they will accept less for him for a variety of reasons. Boldin has only one year left on his deal, his body takes the punishment of a running back, and Steve Breaston has proven to be a reliable starter.

While Boldin's health is a question mark, he's only 29 years old and is known as a great locker room leader. Baltimore tops the list of teams that will be interested and Miami also makes sense.

The Cardinals wanted a first and a third-round pick last year. With his trade value down, perhaps a second-round pick and change could seal the deal.

Expect to hear a lot more about Boldin in the build up to April's draft. This time, it should pay off in a trade.

Baltimore sounds like a good fit. But I think Miami will go for it.

To bad we don't have Dallas money. Since they didn't tag Miles Austin I'd rather go for him but Dallas will throw a bazillion dollars at him to keep him.

I would love Miles Austin too. Don't see him getting out of JJ grasp.

Too Bad

That would have been the steal of the offseason. What a dilemna for a defensive backfield. Double Smitty or Austin.

GO Panthers
