So, as PFT's Mike Florio suggests, any team that trades for Boldin this weekend is going to have to make some tough financial decisions in a compressed time frame, assuming that the draft picks sent to Arizona come from the 2009 edition of the selection process. Remember: Boldin is believed to be angling for a deal that pays him $9 million to $10 million per year and a number of observers have hinted that the overall compensation -- in terms of both draft picks and a new contract -- is behind the general lack of interest.
