I certainly can live with that for a year while the drafted rookie gets his feet under him. Not to mention, Anquan Boldin's game has NEVER revolved around speed. His 40 time was a 4.71 and he still put up over 1,300 yards his rookie year. Boldin's game isn't speed, it's routes, hands, aggression, body positioning, and fighting for contested catches. He still does all of those.
I am usually against signing older free agents, but Bolden would be the perfect replacement for Sanu. Still draft a guy to groom as his replacement but let Boldin play ion front of him for a year or two.
If we lose Jones that is a different story. We already have Eifert as a serious target in the short to middle range. We need a WR who demands respect deep to replace Jones.
