In a move that could drastically change this year's NFL draft, the Ravens have expressed interest in acquiring Boldin from the Arizona Cardinals, a league source confirmed Thursday.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
This is further confirmation of a previous report by ESPN's Sal Paolantonio suggesting the Ravens, Jets, Eagles and Giants are among those interested in Boldin. The general consensus says it will take a first- and a third-round draft pick to acquire Boldin, who had 89 catches for 1,038 yards and 11 touchdowns last season. This is the third time in five years the Ravens have considered trading for a wide receiver. Their trade for Terrell Owens in 2004 was rescinded, and the team failed to complete a deal for Randy Moss in 2005.
