Well for one, he was actually more productive than Marvin Jones, considering he missed 2 games. If you average his numbers out to 16 games, he would've had 79 catches, 902 yards and 5 scores. He was also stuck with a bad situation at QB (Kaep and Gabbert). The 49ers passed for 458 fewer yards and 15 fewer TDs than the Bengals.
I never said Boldin was fantastic last year, but suggesting that it's been 4-5 years since he was productive or relevant is a stretch. He's had 1100 yards as recently as 2014 and last year his production was solid considering who was throwing at him. He's probably not cut out to be a #1 anymore, but I think he'd make for a good short term #2 target.
I just don't want him here for reasons I've mentioned in previous posts.
