1420! Temptation of Boromir

I am reading LotR again and it seems each time I read it there is a new question to ask. So here goes, why do you think that Boromir was so tempted by the ring? He never held it, but desired it greatly. Even Gollum when first discovering the ring held by Deagol desired it and even killed for it but never touched it until after the killing. Why do you suppose they desired it so greatly? Everyone at the Council of Elrond saw the ring but why is it that only Boromir desired it so greatly that he tried to take it from Frodo?
