BuffaloBill Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 Interesting perspective. Moulds had size and speed so I can see where he would have been tough to deal with.

Mikie2times Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Moulds was so underated by those outside WNY and I would even say by a lot of people in WNY at this stage in time. He was a dominating receiever when he broke out that gave us some great memories. I will never forget his catch in the "just give it to em" game and his record setting performance against the Dolphins in the Playoffs. Sadly both those games ended in heartbreak but I don't think we would have even been in a position to get our heart broke if Moulds wasn't on the team.
YoloinOhio Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 Yet sat behind Quinn Early for 2 years after being drafted in the 1st rd!
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Eric moulds was only great in even years!!
Mikie2times Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Yet sat behind Quinn Early for 2 years after being drafted in the 1st rd! Ya, that was a time 1st year WR's rarely saw the field. I remember when we drafted him I had high hopes. I started to think he might not deliver. All of a sudden the guy just exploded. He was a very well rounded player. Good speed, athleticism, hands, physical. Probably the closest guy I can think of now who compares in the way he plays is Dez Bryant.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Ike Taylor was on NFL Total Access after announcing his retirement @AroundTheNFL: On TotalAccess: @Ike_SwagginU ranked his toughest 3 WRs to cover ever: 3. Eric Moulds 2. Randy Moss 1. Steve Smith. Interesting TO isn't in there.
Mr. WEO Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Ike Taylor's list of WR's difficult to cover likely runs in the hundreds...
4merper4mer Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Interesting TO isn't in there. I remember seeing something where TO was interviewed in his prime and asked the best receivers in the game not including himself. He list only two or three and Eric Moulds was on this list. He called him "very underrated".
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Ike Taylor's list of WR's difficult to cover likely runs in the hundreds... Haha-- nice.
DC Tom Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Yeah, but Taylor never had to cover Stevie "What the hell is he doing?" Johnson. I'm surprised he only has Moss at #2. Moss may have been a complete head-case, but he was an unbelievable talent.
Protocal69 Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 What is this talk up former bills day. Terrell Owens was on His and Hers and said that one of the best QB he played with was Ryan Fitzpatrick because how he was able to read the defense and get him the ball.

Trent, not so much.
QuoteTheRaven83 Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Eric moulds was only great in even years!! So was every other WR in Bills history except Stevie Johnson.
DallasBillsFan1 Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 I recall listening to an interview, and I forget which corner or defensive player was being interviewed, but when asked who was the most difficult player at that time to cover, they responded Stevie Johnson. I guess he ran routes in an unorthodox fashion.
