Boldin is a free agent

Having KB back is not enough. Too many drop issues by all of our WRs.

Boldin's been amazing in the playoffs throughout his career and went for 104 and a TD in the Super Bowl against that elite defense. Could've used him a lot against Denver. He'd be our most physical receiver by far outside of KB. Probably would come relatively cheap too.

The poo he was doing in the playoffs against us when he was a 49er still kind of tick me off.

Ehh I wasn't happy about that either but I was more pissed at the refs for not throwing flags. He was doing the same stuff our guys like Mitchell were doing only difference was we got penalized they didn't. And we signed Harper after his sh*t against us...

I'm iffy given the age, but it's true we do have a thing for Walter Payton award winners.

We've already had the last two on roster.  Maybe we'll go for a third.

 

3 Walter Payton award winners would cancel out a Kraken, wouldn't they?

 

I wouldn't sign him to be our starter across from KB but it wouldn't be of much risk to add him to the group even at age 36. And yes he's old but was more productive last year with terrible QB play than Cotchery has been in nearly a decade.

If the team still wants that one 'old dude' in the receiving corps, I could see it.

He certainly fits the general team chemistry.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
