The Facts: HC John Harbaugh made it clear he would like to see Boldin return to Baltimore, but added several factors would need to fall into place for it to happen. Among those factors are whether Boldin would even want to return and if General Manager Ozzie Newsome could make it work. Asked specifically whether the team is considering a reunion with the 15-year veteran, Harbaugh said: "I've got to be careful in how I answer that because, of course, we are. Of course, I am."
Diehards Line:
If the Ravens are serious about bringing back Boldin, who was one of the key offensive weapons on the Super Bowl XLVII team, they may have to wait until after the draft (if he lasts that long on the open market). Boldin is an unrestricted free agent after playing on a one-year deal with the Lions last season. But as far as Boldin's play is concerned, Harbaugh believes the 36-year-old veteran would be a major boost. Boldin showed last year that he's still productive. He led the Lions with eight touchdowns and finished second on the team with 67 catches for 584 yards while playing in the slot as the No. 3 receiver. "I will say this: I do believe he can still play at the highest level," Harbaugh said. "I think his ability and skills are such that he's not going to drop off the edge just because of how he plays."
