BADOLBILZ Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 And Zay Jones. Always good to have a hard working and accomplished vet for the young 'uns Maybe best not to have those expectations of Boldin. He will be around for critical downs, helping TT, mentoring the younger WRs Could help Zay Jones. I don't have much expectation for him this season but any young WR can learn from a competitor like Boldin. But Zay comes from an NFL family.......his dad has SB rings.......he at least had some guidance into the league. Sammy's step dad is a garbage collector and his bros are criminals. He spoke volumes about his respect for his father with that little jobs statement. Huge Sammy fan......great talent......but anyone who thinks he "just needs to get healthy" to reach his potential is wrong.

beerme1 Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 is Swiss Chalet still around?? Loved that place as a kid. Last time I saw one was about 5 years ago in Toronto (or maybe it was St. Catherine's) Only in Canada now. Pity.
Putin Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Perhaps he is tough, but he has not been effective enough so far at Buffalo. Hopefully he will be this year, the guy is a machine if he is healthy I could be wrong but I swear I thought it was a tread about Aquan Boldin !!! Because the people claiming he isn't tough have never played a down of full contact football most likely. And definitely have never tried to play football with a broken foot. Sammy has continuously played through pain and injuries, so much so that its probably been the sole reason they have lingered as much as they have. Anyone doubting the kids toughness really has no idea what the word "tough" even means. Someone wants to question his durability given he's had some injuries impact his first few years in the NFL, then by all means go right ahead. Doubting the kids toughness though is absurd. Pardon moi sir , I don't believe anyone is questioning Sammys thoughness ( some may have said something about the mental aspect of it ) Only in Canada now. Pity. Are you referring to chalet Swiss the chicken rotisserie place ? I grow up in Montreal , been in the states for the past 28 years and never seen one ☹️
Chandler#81 Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Who's on airport duty? Anyone here an Uber driver? Don't let him visit and leave. That never rarely works out well. Make it happen, McBeane!
machine gun kelly Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Boldin was excellent, but not sure if he's lost. Too many steps that he would be easily covered. If he can prove at his workout he still has the speed to play then great. Sign him to the league minimum.

If he can prove at his workout he still has the speed to play then great. Sign him to the league minimum. I think it was pointed out earlier in the thread, but he's been playing at a low speed his whole career given that he ran a 4.71. He makes it work.
frogger Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Boldin is like having a short physical TE in the slot. He will be best in a 3 WR set, where he can work to help pick up the additional yard on an outside run. He'll also be the slot extension that Tyrod needs, when Tyrod breaks out of the pocket, Boldin will be who he looks for to either block or pick up the first on 3rd and 5. I was a fan of his a FSU and I hope to be a fan of his in Buffalo.
billieve420 Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Disappointed this thread is only at 15 pages by now.
Gugny Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Wake me up when someone sees his fiancée at the airport. And unless Pat Moran reports it, it's BUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

plenzmd1 Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 I have not read this whole thread, so sorry if this has already been mentioned/asked. But I think of Boldin a lot like Hines Ward, a guy who helps the running game as much as he helps the passing game. Is that off? Am I wrong in making that assumption? I think blocking was Robert Woods strongest suit as well, so if Boldin can help in that regard, even with diminished reception numbers, I am all for it.

Someone wrote it up-thread...basically, Boldin is a rich man's Bobby Woods.
YoloinOhio Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 @buffalobills Free agent WR Anquan Boldin is on a visit with the Bills today. Details: https://t.co/pIr0AyjbkC?amp=1
jimmy10 Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 Alrighty then, this is not a drill, TSWers. Everyone to your stations. Who's got eyes on Tempo? Charter jet logs at the airport? Buddy Nix's super fly leather coat?

Buddy Nix's super fly leather coat? I think Tempo is out with this more budget conscious front office. They are taking him to Ted's (Beane has a coupon).
JoeF Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 I think Tempo is out with this more budget conscious front office. They are taking him to Ted's (Beane has a coupon). Beane is cheap....although Ted's is good....
YoloinOhio Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 (edited) Don't forget the Loganberry, Beane! @rapsheet #Bills are hosting veteran FA Anquan Boldin today on a visit. Hed hoped to remain close to his home in Florida if he was going to play, tho Edited July 24, 2017 by YoloinOhio
BuffaloBaumer Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 I doubt any teams with legit QBs are in the mix for this guy so one last payday is probably what he will get (from a team like Buffalo). I would be surprised if this is the typical "let's go to Buffalo to drive up the price". I think he ends up signing here today
