Kirby Jackson Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 For me it is Boldin, Hartline or Neal I guess. WR is far and away the biggest need at this point IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Boldin, Hartline, and the unmentioned James Jones should all be considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 A slow but tough Boldin could be good for this team. Provide some much needed leadership on offense and maturity to the WR group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Boldin wouldn't' the a bad pick up. So would Freeney. Hardy was a major disruption last year and wasn't even average. I wouldn't take him at the league minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 It does seem we NEED a WR, whether it be one of these guys or someone who gets cut late. I didn't know Salas was on this planet until he joined the Bills, but then I was surprised he was available. Small sample size, I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my hope that the bills are seeing something in the C lister's they brought in at wideout to compete for the 3rd and 4th positions that make them think that Boldin might not be needed.....

That is what I keep telling myself I agree with what you are telling yourself.I think Whaley feels that between Watkins, Clay, McCoy, and Woods they have 4 pass catching options.

Rocky Landing Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 In my opinion, Boldin, in his prime, was one of the best YAC receivers I have ever seen. I do also believe that Tyrod was his teammate for a couple years in Baltimore, right? SF was a dumpster fire last year, but Boldin did put up some numbers for them. Still, I think if we're going to spend the money on another WR in FA, it should be somebody that would be harder to cover one on one. That might not be Boldin at his age, and it definitely wouldn't be Hartline. Which leaves, I think... no one. What about Vasquez, though? I think there's a pretty good chance that a decent few WRs are going to emerge from our roster in TC. But what the hell is up with our O-line? Could Vasquez be a decent pick-up for depth, at least? Is anyone happy with the right side of our line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 (edited) Agree. Michael Bolton likely will not. Anquan Boldin might. Why? He's 35 and has made $62M in his 13 year career. He is either going to take a smaller deal on a strong contender or look for a big payday (relatively speaking). He'd certainly be a lot of help at a position of need, but I just don't see the Bills dropping 5 or 6 million on a one year deal for him.

26CornerBlitz Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 @The_Real_Kurt @AlbertBreer why does Anquan Boldin not have a job? @AlbertBreer Albert Breer Retweeted The_Real_Kurt Texted a pro scouting director.

bacarri and coke Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Bring him inHad him on my fantasy last year so payed a lot of attention to him last year and he's not good.He doesn't get much separation from dbs.The only reason he had decent numbers is Rodgers is so accurate and throws with an insane amount of anticipation.He seemed to run the wrong routes and frustrate Rodgers but with so few options he put up OK numbers. Tyrods strong suite is not anticipating throws so not a good match imo.When Jones runs routes he doesn't get much more than a half step on most times.To sum it up...he's a bag of broke dildo's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) talk down here about cowboys guard ron leary being subject of trade talks with the saints. not advocating, just mentioning. knee issues, and just lost his job to lael collins. but does have starting experience, and in college played all over the line (both guard and tackle). some speculation that the saints would consider him a RT. hes backed up both tackle and guard i believe. currently on a 2nd round tender, so you would be negotiating a different pick, and probably a longer term deal if you went that way.
