The Facts:
As the Steelers OC the past three years, Ken Whisenhunt developed a reputation for occasionally using gadget plays, so Boldin also could be called upon to throw once in awhile. What Boldin really wants to do, however, is to take a few of those 550 rushing attempts that Whisenhunt would like to have in a season. "I don't have to throw the ball, just put me in the backfield a couple of times and let me run it, I'll be OK," Boldin said with a smile.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As Republic staffer Kent Somers noted, Boldin has been favorably compared to Pittsburgh receiver Hines Ward and Whisenhunt plans to use Boldin in similar ways. Boldin has been moved from the "X" receiver to the "Z", where he played his rookie year. The Cardinals will move him around the formation, but he'll line up in the slot more than he did last year. ... But he probably shouldn't count on getting too many of those carries.
