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

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

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

    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

    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.

    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.

    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

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

    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.

    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.

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

    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.
