Boldin can kick and scream for a trade all he wants, but unless the Cardinals actually proceed forward and try and trade him, this thread is moot. Chad Johnson "demanded" a trade while still under contract, where is he todaY?

Cardinals will not trade Boldin, no matter how much Boldin wants to be traded.

And whoever said "Trade and sign him for vet minimum" just a reminder that when you trade to acquire a player, you also acquire his CURRENT contract deal. And he is in the middle of a 22 3/4 milion dollar extension now. He is making 4 million a year right now, and wants more.

Let's imagine that Boldin holds out, and doesn't play, until 2011. Would that be a good situation for AZ? They surely wouldn't be able to trade him for anything of value at that time.

It's all about return on investment, and if Boldin isn't playing, AZ has got to be considering their options -- even if they say they aren't. Just because Boldin is under contract doesn't mean AZ won't trade him. If he's not on the field, I guarantee AZ will look at possible trade scenarios (if they haven't already).

P.S.: the vet min thing was a joke (I think)
