He is working out in Ft. Lauderdale, and it is reported that he hopes to have it resolved by draft day per Steve Wyche.

i heard that he's been seen in South Florida on 2 or 3 occasions but i didn't post anything b/c i had no concrete evidence. It sounds like there's a good workout facility in Ft. Lauderdale b/c Jets RB Thomas Jones is there as well. In other words, Boldin being in Ft. Lauderdale has nothing to do with the Dolphins being interested in him or vice versa.

Boldin may be interested in the Dolphins but I am not sure the feeling is mutual as he would come at a very high price draftwise and contractwise.I can guesstimate that we are not willing to give two day one picks for him .Thats two starters .We still have a lot of roster spots to fill .

I posted this after watching the video, and wondering if Parcells, and Ireland are not floored by the kids coming out of college would they look at Boldin?

I would love to get him. He has the veteran leadership without the diva crap that TO brings, but I have a feeling the cost (both contracts and picks) would be just way too high.

I can really see this happening. Here is the scenario I can't get out of my head. Pick 25 comes along, Maualuga, Matthews and Nicks are off the board. Parcells makes a call to the Cards and offers our 1st for Boldin they say yes and Boldin is coming home to Miami. :wink2:

How about our 25th pick and Devonne Bess for Boldin. I think that would be fair.

I would rather see what the trifecta can do with our draft picks rather than spend a lot of cap room on Boldin. Why can't we develope our own talent instead of wishing for players from other teams? This team has been talent poor for so long we almost feel like we have to pick up talent elsewhere to make us competitive. Boldin is a really good receiver but will cost a bunch to sign. Miami wouldn't have exclusive rights to Boldin and I am pretty sure some other teams would like to get in on the opportunity to get him.

Yeah, the salary impact of Boldin is always forgotten in the discussion.
I assume he'll want closer to $9mil per year on a renegotiated contract.
Maybe we draft a WR after all.
If we do trade for Boldin, I think it only happens once the draft gets to our pick and there is no one worthwhile whom we want on the board, AND we can;t find a partner to trade down.
That would make Boldin the best remaining option.
