Anquan Boldin

Boldin is a standout player from the Cardinals and would make an impact for any team right away. Boldin is either wanting a new contract or a ticket out of town. The word was that Arizona wants atleast a 1st round and another pick but he has been up for discussions. It is rumored that the Chicago Bears have already inquired on getting the receiver from the Cards. The Chiefs head coach Haley was Boldins offensive coordinator in Arizona and has said if Boldin was more available he would be pulling hard to make him a Chief.

Braylon Edwards

 Braylon Edwards is going into a contract year and will have too quit dropping passes. Edwards had been put up on the block by Cleveland earlier in the offseason and if Edwards gets enough interest he could end up in a new uniform before the season ends. Rumors have came about relating Edwards too the Giants,Jets, or even a proposed trade by the milehighreport.com of Edwards for Marshall.

Brandon Marshall

Brandon Marshall is the least likely too become a Chief (slim too none) but I think he will be the first of these guys too find a new team with the way the Broncos luck has been. Marshall has been skipping practice and has been said too of requested a trade. Likely destinations? Bears,Ravens,Jets.

Will any of these guys play somewhere else in 09 and if so with who and will the Chiefs be involved?

The loudest wheel gets the oil.

Marshall being traded saves the Broncos some PR points. Plus, McDaniels better have guys that WANT to play for his club…or it will be a very miserable season for him and the Broncos.

Don't think any will,

But of those three, BM would be the most likely to be flushed.

How fitting.

I could get more sacks with my sack

Outside of Boldin,

I would expect teams would shy away from any of these yayhoos and go for talented, albeit old receivers like Harrison or Booker. They are all talented in their own right, but is a couple of touchdowns really worth all the drama? I don’t think so. I think the primadonna receivers like OchoCinco, Edwards, and Marshall are a detriment to clubs that are actually trying to get to a Superbowl. It hasn’t worked in Washington, in Dallas, or Oakland…just to name a few.

A couple of TDs?

I think you underestimate what a great WR can do for your team. These guys (at least Boldin and Marshall) make opposing defenses game plan around them. They open up the run game and stretch the field to allow other receiving options to get open as well.
I will be honest, at this point, I don’t think any team is scared of D-Bowe. I am not saying they should’nt be, but I don’t think any team is going to change their game plan to account for his presence on the field. Until he proves himself to be a valid #1 guy, teams are going to stuff the box and keep our run game at bay. We need a WR who teams have to prepare for or, we need our other receiving options to step up bigtime.

I think you may be underestimating Bowe’s presence on the field. I bet defenses plan against him more than you think – compare his numbers his first two seasons with the first 2 years of Fitz, Marshall, Boldin, etc. You may be surprised.

Marley will be walking soon...she could probably play Linebacker better than some of the guys we had.

Numbers are one thing.

Dropping the easy pass on a key 3rd down is another thing entirely. I’m tired of big stats guys who don’t bring wins.

by hmills110 on Jun 16, 2009 1:19 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I'm not suggesting he doesn't need to work on it

but seriously, he dropped 13 balls last year (Brandon Marshall dropped 12 in 15 games)

If he drops 10+ balls this season, I may start to worry, but right now, I’m thinking Bowe’s “Sophomore Slump” wasn’t THAT “slumpish”

Yeppers

It is all about making the right play when the game is on the line.
I am still waiting to see that from Bowe…It is not like he has not had opportunities. (see game 1 vs NE)
I think Bowe is going to be an awesome receiver but, he isn’t the same kind of threat for a defense as say Fitzgerald, or Burress, Moss, etc. YET!!! Haley could very well turn D-Bowe into the next Fitzgerald. He has all the tools. He really just needs to work on his concentration and the Coaches also need to come up with plays that are designed to help him get open.

That's what we're hopin', 1970.

And cutting down on the false starts and holding penalties from the TE spot wouldn’t hurt, either. (ducking)

Marshall will be gone.

Boldin will get his contract for close to 9 mil, and Edwards will find out no one wants him and try to put a posative spin on the situation. Marshall said he wants out and there is already talk of him to the Ravens. Wouldn’t that be a shame to get him out of the West.

by Helmets on Jun 16, 2009 8:16 AM CDT reply actions   0 recs

It would

That would be nice to get him out of the west. Just one problem with that if he ends up with Ravens. We play Baltimore in Week 1. Albeit just once and for now only this year but even then we need to shove him some where that it wont effect us much, Detroit anyone? Lol.

Aye, Helmets.

I didn’t read the vote very carefully. Took Boldin as the most viable starter, rather than most likely to move, which was the question.

Boldin wont go anywhere due to his high price
BM will be on a new team very soon
not sure about Edwards

and that trade alleged by milehighreport is garbage. Edwards for Marshall all i have to say about that is ROFLMAOPMP

by Grand Master A on Jun 16, 2009 11:20 AM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, I think they'll cut a deal with Boldin.

And there are plenty of talented WRs out there with hands of stone – they’re called defensive backs. Maybe Edwards should consider a position move. Hell, at this point, maybe BOWE should. Hold onto that ball, suckah!

by hmills110 on Jun 16, 2009 1:22 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I have to say that I’m really happy that I’m glad Denver traded away their 2010 1st, because that’s going to be one awfully early pick after all the turnover and turmoil on the team.

by burntorangehorn on Jun 17, 2009 4:31 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

plus the

picks that they will get for BM if the donkeys play thier cards the will have alot of young talent
