"not much room for Boldin"

"We can get all those guys (rookies) done and still be able to accommodate everybody on our projected 53," Graves said.
But that would leave little cap space to add replacements for injured players or to re-sign key veterans, such as receiver Anquan Boldin.
just posting this here. i know boldin has two years left on his contract and they could get a deal done next year or even the next but it is strange to see them not worried about it. i know they've got fitz but having boldin takes away from teams doubling up on him..

"A man's suffering is similar to the behavior of gas. If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus, suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering great or little. Therefore, the "size" of human suffering is absolutely relative." - Viktor Frankl
I dont know that would necessarily hamper getting a deal done as usually the first year of a new deal doesn't have much of a cap hit since the immediate payout is in a signing bonus.
Boldin is a beast and does deserve a pay raise. Fitzgerald is making ten million a season and Boldin is making six. I can understand why he feels slighted and so should Arizona. Boldin is a #1 wideout and should be at least getting eight in comparison to Fitzgeralds contract.
And for the record, I can't stand how much money professional athletes make, especially when you have guys complaining about making six million dollars a year.
