Trade for Boldin

a first and heap sounds likea great idea. Heap has had all his bonuses and stuff paid making him easier to trade cap wise and would take a chunk off our salary, but im still iffy about wether this would allow for the signing of suggs, gaither and ngata.

I like the 1st and Heap a lot. But I still would prefer drafting a young wideout. He'd sign for around 5 years, 8-9 million at most. I'd rather put big money on our own guys than a wideout who plays the way Anquan does going on 29.

What do yall think of Brian Robiskie? His stock is rising fast, maybe we could trade down to the top of the 2nd and take him there. He's a sure thing in my mind and could be a great dependable receiver for a long time.

[Ravens1991]

I like him as a prospect, but IDK if he is the right fit for us.

[jkpigskin]

half of me wants boldin.. his toughness and playmaking ability is enticing
the other half is wary of his attitude and the fact that heyward bey's ceiling is mouth watering and tempting

[ChefMike]

What if we just offered up our 2nd and 3rd staight up for Boldin?? Rather than one pick and a player? Or Heap, McGahee and a 3rd for Boldin?

Ok, let's Focus on tomorrow!
I don't think the Trade will happen. So let's pick our WR in the 1st Round!!

[mikedoobie]

ha, agreed but if it does happen ill be pshyced.
ok who do you guys think will be the best value at our pick come the draft
I think there will be solid value at CBs and WRs and i hope either DHB or Vontae drop. If not imo i think Britt would be a great choice. And i would cream myself if we get Pettigrew
if we trade back i hope we go after Sean Smith, and pray for a reciever like Robiskie being there with our second

ESPN they just said the Cardinals have significantly lowered their asking price and are now willing to take just a 2nd rounder and other pieces. However the only teams involved in negotiations are the Jets, Giants, and Eagles. I'd be pissed if he went for cheap. If all we would have to give is the 26th pick, we'd be nuts not to give it.

[Ravens1991]

ya I am pissed that we are not in the talks for a 2nd and other pieces.

If we could somehow get away with sending, Heap and a 2nd rounder for Boldin, use the 1st rounder on Pettigrew/Maualuga, I would need a new pair of pants.

Hell I have no problem giving a 2nd rounder, Heap, and next years 2nd. BTW if next year is truly uncapped I wouldn't have as much as a problem with giving up future picks this year. We could fill needs in Free agency.

[Ravens1991]

ya if Heap and a 2nd can get him to Baltimore. We gotta do that immediately!!!!

Eagles might do 2nd and Sheldon Brown since he wants to be traded.

It doesn't matter how much they are asking for him, we simply can't afford Boldin right now w/ or w/o a new contract.

I've read that we can, can't remember where but someone broke down how it would be possible to.

We have 1.5 mil. remaining right now, the only way I would be able to see it happening is to trade Heap and cut somebody else. IDK if I see the FO giving up multiple players for a WR...

[BmoreBlackByrdz]

how about trading McGahee and Heap AND a 2nd rounder? Both guys have big contracts. If we get Boldin, trade Heap and McGahee, and still have our first, it'd be awesome. We could then actually take the BPa, which might be Chris Wells. I've always been a fan of his and he'd be amazing in our offense.

We can't cut or trade McGahee. It would cost us 11.25 mil. against the cap this year alone.

Plus even if the Cardinals wanted McGahee, the Ravens can’t afford to part with him. No, that is not a typo. The Ravens cannot afford to trade Willie Mac. If they did the team would be hit with a staggering $11.25 million charge against their cap and if you haven’t looked at the Ravens cap status lately, they have but a fraction of that available ($1.5 million).

All this Todd Heap hate

[Ravens1991]

105.7 reports if Pettigrew is there at 26 we take him, then we already have a deal in place that send a 2nd and heap 2 arizona
