Anquan Boldin will retire if the Ravens cut him.....

[WvGambler]

Talk about a mistake. This guy still has 2-3 really good years left in him.

smart move

drives his value up on the free agent market when he gets cut

[WvGambler]

You think he's full of the shit, eh Arch?

[d2bets]

BS. He can say whatever wants. He won't retire if he's released.

[seaborneq]

He plays next year no matter what. Not many 5 million dollar a year jobs laying around out there.

[James D]

D2 and Sea are right. Zero chance he does not play next season and I would happily bet on it. I would lay 2-1 and be a happy man

[Chi_archie]

You think he's full of the shit, eh Arch?

not him so much as the advisement of his agent

does the guy think he and his family are really set for retirement?

we all know 75% of these guys are Broke within 10 years.

[WvGambler]

Boldins a bright guy. Not some nutty thug. I bet hes set to retire, financially. I also dont see how the Ravens could keep him once they overpay for Flacco.

[Big Bear]

He is probably as financially able to retire as the top 1% of americans...

look at how people are out there trying to support families on a 30,000 salary. this guy makes millions

[Big Bear]

even if he does retire he could give football lessons and make $25 bucks an hour or more

[The Kraken]

If he retires, he ends up with a six figure salary working for ESPN as an analyst, next to ray Lewis.

boldin can't create separation anymore.. he will be cut!

[Jimmy0607]

Thats what they said when he came out of college .... he can't create separation with his speed , blah blah

[frostno98]

He'll be broke in a couple of years if he do. Look at David Tyree and Palixco Burress, both dude's are broke and still looking for work.

Daimo is fukkin idiot. Period.

[TheBlum]

Flacco was nothing without Boldin ...

of course tyree is broke...dude never made any real money in the nfl...the guy was basically a practice squad player...had his 15 minutes and a little book he wrote or some shit

anyways...tell boldin and reed to come to foxboro

[icancount2one]

If he can avoid the issues Tiki Barber ran into, there's no reason not to retire early and save your health/sanity. Dude has taken some monster hits to the dome for a receiver.

[pavyracer]

Look at teams with the highest paid QB's. There WR's are not making any money and they are mediocre.

[BON VIVANT]

Flacco was nothing without Boldin ...

This ^^^

[GunShard]

Flacco was nothing without Boldin ...

Agreed.

[James D]

He'll be broke in a couple of years if he do. Look at David Tyree and Palixco Burress, both dude's are broke and still looking for work.

Tyree prolly made a few million lifetime, so many athletes blew thru 50 and 100 million like its nothing.

[alan.mcconnell]

I say we extend Anquan Boldin's contract another four years and keep him around to mentor up and coming receivers like Tandon Doss, Deonte Thompson & LaQuan Williams.
