2012
Boldin- 65 Receptions, 921 Yards, 4 TD
Jennings and Driver-44 Receptions, 443 Yards, 6 TD

Not only did Jennings only play in 8 games last year and DD saw the field in just 4, but Boldin doubled their yards, had 33% more receptions, and about the same TD production. DD is one of my all time favorite Packers, but age caught up with him and all the young guys passed him up. Jennings has been banged up the past 2 years. The Packers depth is far more verified than the Ravens at WR, so that is the reason more people think that Rodgers won't miss a beat and it is accurate.

Boldin is a big loss, not saying it is catastrophic, just saying, it is a way bigger loss than a WR that hasn't been relevant since 2009 and a WR that has been injured just as much as healthy in the past two years.
