Anquan Boldin (1 Viewer)

Boldin has to be one of the 3 or 5 toughest WRs to bring down after the catch. He might be the toughest.

How many looks did he have last night? 15, 16, 17? Bears knew who Leinart was targeting by half.
And few of his catches were 'easy'. He was almost always in traffic and/or knew a jarring hit was coming on some of those slants. Still hung on to the ball.
I'm telling you, he's a freakin monster, and gladder than ever that he's on my team.
I was really waiting for Leinart to air out a couple of deep balls and let him battle for the catch. Matt just didn't have time for any deep balls.

They kept comparing him to Sterling Sharpe last night and I think it is a good comparison. He runs good routes, has great hands and is a freaking horse to tackle. This time with Fitz out will build his relationship with Leinert even more.
If he stays healthy, he will be a top 10 WR for the next several years.

He's a beast and in my top 3-5 favorite WRs in the league. Fitzgerald is nice and all, but Anquan Boldin is for the children.

No doubt he's the real deal. If AZ can solidify their O-line play they could be a fun offense to watch for years to come. Yikes ... can't believe I actually said that.

I've had his owner on the fence about dealing him for over a week. Last night's performance probably ends any shred of hope I had of acquiring him.
If he's going to get that many targets until Fitzgerald is back, there ain't nobody I'd rather be starting until then at WR. Bad team, playing lots of catchup most weeks, AND the QB is leaning on him. Sold.

He looks like David Boston (particularly in a Cards uniform!)... only physique wise I mean! (not talent or bonehead wise)... he's huge / very tough to bring down...

Yup. Even played QB against Georgia in the Sugar Bowl.ACC = Conference of Champions

I had the #1 overall in a 12 man redraft. I almost went #2 fitz and on the turn, #3 boldin. I went with fitz gates thoughWith the running game looking so bad, I think Arizona may be pass first as well. I am actually considering starting Boldin and BJohnson at WR this week vs Oakland.

He is one of the best WR in fantsay and he is also one of the best WR in the NFL this year. All he needed was a better QB, so they got Leinart and he is the main target since Fitzgerald is out.

Wonder why Arizona doesn't run more trick plays with him.gump said:

Capella, was he always this amazing in college? Why exactly did he drop to the 2nd round? I remember hearing something of a slow 40 time, but if Mike Williams went top 10, why not this guy?Capella said:
In college he was ala Hines Ward, a guy that could play about anywhere on offense. They used him at WR and QB at FSU. The guy can flat out chuck the ball like 70 yards. Big arm.He was known for coming up with big plays in college but was not a polished WR. He did run a slow 40...I think well into the 4.6 area whereas Williams was more of a polished WR and ran 4.55. His game comes from major quicks and he plays faster than he times.Hard to believe that the Cards actually took Bryant Johnson in the 1st that year and Boldin in the 2nd. And then, Fitz the next year...actually paid off for them well. I guess that's kind of what Detroit had in mind.

Slow 40 time and major knee injury at FSU.

Boldin was fast in college, but tore his ACL and didn't get his speed back right away. He was a stud his last year in college but he only ran a 4.7 at the combine. I think it was the injury history that scared teams off, something BMW didn't have.

LinkFortunately, I haven't seen many Cards game this year, but I'm wondering if this has something to do with it?

Awesome. I just traded him for Deuce straight up. Deuce was doomed to eternity on my bench and I needed WR help since Plax and Santana Moss were injured.
Then I have McGahee go down with busted ribs and Boldin has fallen off the face of the Earth.
And Deuce scores twice in 12 touches last week. Just my luck.

New QB and new OC? Yeah, that definitely not a great situation.
