Boldin available for a 2nd rounder?

What do you think? Would Boldin be worth one of our second round picks or do we have too many other gaps to fill first?

Bowe, Boldin, and Chambers. That sounds like a very solid receiving corps to me. I would give pick 2b for a group like this.

Bowe, Chambers, and Shipley (3rd rd pick) would be better imo.

I would take either lineup. It would be nice just to see WR who CAN CATCH THE BALL.

You build a team through the draft, not through trading 2nd round draft picks for 30 year old receivers.

Yeah, because we all know the Pats had 0 success in their trade for Randy Moss (granted it wasn't a 2nd round pick, but if the Raiders knew what they did now Moss would've been worth a 2nd.)

I would trade them Bowe for Boldin, straight up.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but how many Super Bowls did they win before they had Moss, and how many have they won since acquiring him?

One player doesn't make a team, and the nucleus of those Super Bowl teams were acquired through the draft.

It sounds good, but WR is not really a need.

One players doesn't make a team, but 1 player sure as hell can make a team better. Randy Moss was a huge reason behind the success of the 07' Patriots and was a big reason they went 16-0 that year. Another WR they gained through trade (Wes Welker) also contributed right away and helped make them a better football team.

We're a team that needs players that can contribute to our team and Boldin is certainly one of those players. He's a pro bowl WR and is someone that instantly improves our offense. I don't think our 2b pick is giving up too much for him if a longer term deal can be reached with him and he passes our physical evaluations.
