According to fox sports Boldin needs to take way less than what Fitz just got and he vetoed that.
Fox sports rumor: Boldin is on the block....

Unless you have a link, Scooby, this is just reckless and misleading. It is kind of tiring that you post this crap every time there is some rumor.
There has been nothing out of Arizona about Boldin being on the block. Zip. Nada.
Now, I think it is natural to speculate. Boldin's agent is Drew Rosenhaus. He is under contract for 3 more years at $2.5 (2008), $2.75M (2009) and $3M (2010). He is going to want a new deal. However, Arizona knew about this when they signed Fitzgerald. Nobody, either from the team or Boldin himself, has said anything.
Boldin is a terrific player, one of the best WR in the NFL. However, there isn't any indication he will be traded. Or Roy Williams. Or Chad Johnson. None.

This is a message board, not the New York Times. Come to think of it, the Times' liberal bias is far more reckless and misleading than anything Skooby does.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Thx, I am on my phone and cannot cut & paste. It's funny to get cut down before anyone tries to look it up, esp... By 18-1.

ANQUAN BOLTIN'?
Now that the Cardinals have locked up receiver Larry Fitzgerald at a more affordable (or, as the case may be, less unaffordable) price over the next four seasons, they might have to deal with another thorny issue at the position.
According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, Anquan Boldin could want more money and/or a trade in the wake of Fitzgerald's $10 million-per-year contract.
Per Schefter, some in the Cardinals organization actually regard Boldin as the better wideout. But Boldin will make far, far less than Fitzgerald over the next three seasons -- he's due to earn base salaries of $2.5 million, $2.75 million, $3 million.
In our view, Fitzgerald and Boldin together is a luxury that the Cardinals don't need, especially with coach Ken Whisenhunt presumably trying to bring a Pittsburgh-style power running vibe to the desert.
Assuming that the Cardinals have a plan (which could be a dangerous assumption because we're talking about, you know, the Cardinals), the huge deal given to Fitzgerald should be regarded as evidence that they've opted to keep Fitzgerald over the long haul, and to get what they can for Boldin.
Throw in the fact that Boldin is represented by Drew Rosenhaus, and the stage is set for Boldin to start making noise about moving on.
Possible destinations are Philly, Dallas, and the Redskins.

Interesting... I would love to have this guy obviously... most physical WR in the game right now IMO. Bills coaches should also love the fact that he is one of the best blocking WRs in the NFL. I would give up a 2nd and a 4th as well if need be.

This might also explain BJ's hesitation to join the Bills, he may become # 2 WR for the cards.
