Boldin will be banged up for our game

Its not like they don't have 1000 more options to throw to but Boldin being injured definitely hinders their offense. Its not just a little injury either apparently he is listed as "questionable" with a hamstring injury which can quickly spiral out of control. Don't forget that he is a free agent after this year as well and playing injured/risking worse injury is like an agent's worst nightmare. If he gets injured he gets wayyyy less in the offseason compared to what he could get if he stays healthy...Could potentially be the top paid WR in the league...is he willing to risk that?? IDK....

I think he'll be Probable by game time. Dude has six whole days to rest.

Thats not enough time for a hamstring at all

Remember Smith was out two weeks cause of his hamstring in 06. Hamstring are injuries you just dont recover fast from. Even if he play, he wont be 100 percent. Taking hits and constantly trying to run full time could eventually get him taken out

Boldin isn't going to be free agent. However he does want a bigger contract and my hold out (forcing a trade) if he doesn't get one.

7/31/2005: Signed a four-year, $22.67 million contract extension through 2010. The deal contains $10 million guaranteed, including a $5 million signing bonus. 2009: $2.75 million, 2010: $3 million, 2011: Free Agent

What upset him was Fitzgerald getting this fat deal:

3/11/2008: Signed a four-year, $40 million contract. The deal contains $30 million in guarantees, including a $15 million signing bonus. If Fitzgerald is franchise tagged in 2012, he must be paid $23 million that season. 2008: $2 million, 2009: Under Contract (+ $9 million option bonus), 2010-2011: Under Contract, 2012: Free Agent.

The difference in 90% which is where you would want your players this time of year, and 75% which is probably where Boldin is, is very noticeable on the field.

They will bring him out, and hope to use him as a decoy.

It's the last game of the season for either team, he will try to play.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
