John from Riverside Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I still say there is chance he signs with us.... Just because he went home to talk to his family about the decision doesnt automatically mean they say no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) It is as simple as "does he have a better offer?" If not, he probably goes to the Bills. If he does, he will take the better offer. If he wants a little more money he may wait a couple of weeks into camp to see if a job opens up somewhere.

If he wants a little more money he may wait a couple of weeks into camp to see if a job opens up somewhere. I'll only add that it was reported he "preferred" to play in Florida (or close to it) to be near his family. That really could be the deciding factor, and right now Anquan is talking to the Mrs. about how she'd feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 No it doesn't! The Bills don't want to "pony up" and lowballed him! If he has a contract demand for a pony he will wait a long time for offer. We need ScottLaw to intervene and close the deal, all while making sure that Boldin isn't being "low-balled like Macin was." ScottLaw is busy enough being in charge of torches and pitchforks. Miami is about an hour from his home, Tampa is 3.5 hours and Jacksonville is over 4 hours. Unless he gets on with Miami the family nor he would drive to Tampa or Jax. Would it really be that much more convenient if you're flying anyway? With the TSA nazis? yes. Any flight under 6 hours is not worth considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Almost a certainty that Harbaugh is gone with another playoff miss, so the sense of urgency should be through the roof, interesting to see how everyone responds & it all plays out.and now Flacco could Miss up to 6 weeks of TC @rapsheet #Ravens QB Joe Flacco is preparing to miss 3-6 wks with a disc issue in his back.

BillsFan4 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Boldin still mulling over Bills offer. Sounds like there's more at play than just money - https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2017/7/26/15976540/anquan-boldin-still-mulling-buffalo-bills-offer-2017-nfl-free-agency “I’ve been talking to teams the entire offseason,” said Boldin, who will turn 37 in October. “They understand the way that I train, and the fact that I train at XPE, any team that I go to knows that when I come [into camp] I’m in top shape, and they don’t have to worry it.” Working against the Bills are two things; location and pedigree. Boldin’s family is in Florida and he has expressed a desire to be closer to them. He also told The Florida Sun-Sentiel that he wanted to play for an established winner. "I’m going into year 15 so the only thing on my mind is winning. I’ve earned enough money to take care of me, my family, and my kid’s kids,” said Boldin last week. “I’ve won a championship [with the Ravens]. I know how that feels so I want to a taste of it again. I want to line up with a team that’s in position to win right now.” I'd love for him to sign here, but it doesn't sound all that promising if he wants an established winner.

oldmanfan Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I think he'd be a good addition in terms of his providing a solid veteran presence.
