Anquan Boldin for a 3rd?

[THOLTFAN81]

According to NFL Network's Mike Lombardi, the Cardinals' asking price for Anquan Boldin is a third-round pick.
While Boldin is going on 30 and would likely require a pricey multi-year commitment, Arizona's demands appear to be plenty reasonable. Fellow trade candidate Brandon Marshall is roughly four years younger, but presents far more knucklehead factor, would ask for more money, and costs a first-round pick. The Cards will find plenty of suitors if Lombardi's report is true.

Would they trade Boldin in division is my question. Guy is a gamer who easily has 6-7 years left in him seeing that TO is still in the league at 37.

Thoughts?

We obviously have the highest available compensation @ round 3.

Who knows maybe offer them a 4th round and Bulger?

IMO, no way they trade him to us. With Warner retiring, they've got to be a bit concerned about how long they're going to be able to hang on to that division title. At his age, a 3rd rounder is about right. I don't think he'll play for 6 years, but I suspect he'd be good for at least 4 (including the 2010 season), and I think he'd legitimately fill our need for #1 receiver. I just can't see the Cards pulling the trigger on that with a division rival.

Take the question mark off this, imo I would do this with no question. Boldin is a stud, would give us the big third down reliable target our qbs have been lacking.

No way they trade him in division though.
