The Baltimore Ravens will struggle to replace Anquan Boldin in the offense, but Ozzie Newsome's decision to trade him created money to improve the team in other areas.

“The acquisitions of Elvis Dumervil and Michael Huff are a direct result of the money we saved from that contract,” said Newsome.

“And other guys we got—Chris Canty, Marcus Spears, Daryl Smith—were helped by the savings. So if you ask the question, you can’t just say, ‘Do you wish you kept him?’ You also have to look at the unintended consequences of your actions.”
