Seems like everybody wanted us to sign Boldin this year at age 35, but over a decade ago (im sure hes not as fast now as he once was) he ran a 4.7ish 40 yard dash. Boldin is slower than Treadwell, but for some reason people keep going crazy about his 40 time. Boldin put together a fine career, and I definitely think looking back he was worth a 1st rounder.
Yup, seems every other person would rather have a fast guy that drops balls, limited Rt running over a sure handed good rt runner. The 40 time is kinda overrated. Fitzgerald, Bolden, Dez Bryant was about the same, even Jerry Rice ran a slower 40.
