Arizona Cardinals: Top Five NFC West Receivers
By Scott Allen
December 20, 2014; Santa Clara, CA, USA; San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Anquan Boldin (81) catches a touchdown pass against the San Diego Chargers during the first quarter at Levi
1. Anquan Boldin, 49ers
What can you say about the man? You want to hate him for being with the 49ers but seriously this guy has shown little decline going into his 13th season in the NFL. He still by far put up the best numbers in the NFC West in 2014.
Boldin in his 12th season put up 83 receptions, 1,062 yards, and five touchdowns last season. Every year we think he’s going to lose a bit and he hasn’t shown it. Ok maybe like Fitz he’s lost a step or two but he’s still producing like he was earlier in his career.
Now that Boldin is without Michael Crabtree on the other side this season, it remains to be seen what action Boldin gets since he undoubtedly will see more double teams. I still think Boldin can put up similar numbers in 2015.

Jason Witten, Anquan Boldin, Steve Smith, and Larry Fitzgerald could all record 1,000 career receptions this season
