---- Can unlinked urls still help rankings?

Isn't <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> used for not indexing the page while <meta name="robots" content="nofollow"> is used for not following links on the page.

Maybe I have mis-understood, but I thought I can either NoFollow the entire page with
<meta name="robots" content="nofollow">,
or nofollow an particular url with the attribute.
<a href="http://www.example.com/" rel="nofollow">

And I'd place it on the page with the unlink URL so that when google hits the page, see's the meta tag and ignores the link (as well as others on that page which is the downfall)
