Boldin wants a new deal and more money, especially after Fitz got a ton of money from the Cards. The Cards have offered him a new deal, but Rosenhaus didn't accept it.
Now, while I've said many times that CJ is a case head, in this situation I think the greedy one is Boldin. Why do I bring this up, because there are a lot of people who are just ranting b/c they hate CJ and not b/c they are making a good argument.
Besides, as it has been said before, we quickly come down on players that want out of their contracts, but say nothing when teams cut players before their contract is up. It's all a business, so let's stop pretending like both players and teams honor their contracts.

Why are people crucifying Boldin like he's the greedy a-hole? I understand where Boldin's coming from, Fitzgerald is getting paid like 4 times the salary of Boldin and Boldin doesn't have a lot of years left on his deal anyways. He simply wants to be paid what he's worth, and he knows that's not gonna happen with Arizona because they don't have the cap space to afford him so he wants to be traded. It's not like Boldin signed a new deal a year ago and he wants to upgrade from getting paid 7 million a year to 10 million a year.
