Anquan Boldin Possible NFL return

I'll have to get the link from my phone but I read an article that stated that Anquan Boldin has expressed interest in returning to the league. It also goes on to say that the Bills have granted permission for his agent to try and shop him. So, this brings the usual question, would you possibly trade with the Bills to possibly pick up Boldin at this point? 

Personally, I'd certainly see what they might be interested in taking. I'd assume that they likely couldn't want too much considering he isn't really doing anything for them and we could possibly get him with a low round conditional pick. It would be one of those cases of getting something from him while they still can. The question is though is he ready and still in good football condition since he hasn't played any this season.

You know...my first thought was the typical "we have enough slow receivers" response, but then I remembered that our slow receivers can't run proper routes or block effectively.  Boldin is one of the best "slow" receivers of all time because guess what....he can run all the routes and block effectively.   At this point, what do we have to lose?

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
