Anquan Boldin available for trade?
Let the bidding war begin.
The Arizona Cardinals have stated today that WR Anquan Boldin is available for trade. Although they would prefer to work out a long-term contact extension, the Cardinals are willing to consider offers.
There are several teams that could use a wide receiver, such as the Giants, Browns, Niners, etc.
And apparently Whisenhunt was paying attention to the McJayGate drama in Denver.

“Before the draft, you know there is going to talk about Anquan and his situation and a trade,” [coach Ken] Whisenhunt said. “Since not a whole lot has changed with his contractual situation, we know that will come back up.With two years remaining on his four-year contract, the Cardinals don't have to do anything if the offer isn't right. And despite being unhappy about his contract, Boldin has been professional on and off the field.
“It would be foolish from our standpoint not to listen to those opportunities and see what actually exists. But I want to make the point … our goal is to re-sign him to a long-term deal. That hasn’t changed.”

And apparently Whisenhunt was paying attention to the McJayGate drama in Denver.
“Our biggest fear is that if it gets out, ‘They are discussing a trade with this team.’ We just want to acknowledge there have been teams that have called and we will listen as one of our options.”Boldin, the Cardinals' second-round pick in 2003, earned his third trip to the Pro Bowl in 2008. In 12 games, he finished with 89 receptions for 1038 yarsd and 11 touchdowns.
