Boldin not showing

At this late date a trade is likely out of the question, but it's interesting to note that Arizona receiver Anquan Boldin is sitting out spring practice with the Cardinals because he wants a contract extension. If the Cardinals had been open to a deal before the draft, I think the Bills wanted to make a push for Boldin. The Cards made Larry Fitzgerald the highest-paid receiver in the league earlier this offseason, and it's questionable whether they will be willing to invest even more in Boldin, who still has three years left on his contract. We'll have to see if Boldin is willing to forego any salary by missing mandatory practices in June.

Some say there are two seasons in Buffalo, football season and waiting for football season. Bills beat writers Mark Gaughan and Allen Wilson, along with sports columnist Bob DiCesare and reporters Rodney McKissic and Milt Northrop, offer background and perspective inside the Bills and the NFL.
