2003Contenders Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Wouldn't it be funny if Eric discovered that the market for a 30+ possession receiver, whose barely averaged 10 yards per catch in recent years is not what he thought it would be? And then he decided to return to the Bills and take the paycut that Marv originally presented, since it turned out to be his best option after all?
JAMIEBUF12 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Note the important point here: Moulds contacted the Broncos, not the other way around. The only interest expressed there is from the Moulds camp, and we already know he is interested in moving. 639972[/snapback] i think eric is gonna sober up real fast when all the teams he contacts tell him they are not interested in a 33 year old wide receiver who has a 10 million dollar contract and his best days are behind him not ahead of him....there is no upside with eric...unless the team was a solid playoff team that needed a veteren wide receiver to put them over the top............thats basically the eagles and broncos if they aint interested eric has no interest at all..
Ray Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 If you think Belicheck is going to pay him more than 4M/year you are crazy. Belicheck is a master at assigning value to players. He would never pay a WR 7M/yr that Moulds would get in a trade.
Mark Vader Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Buffalo Easy Posted Today, 10:26 AM Broncos | Team contacted about Moulds Thu, 23 Mar 2006 06:39:42 -0800 Bill Williamson, of the Denver Post, reports the agents for Buffalo Bills WR Eric Moulds contacted the Denver Broncos and four other teams about a trade for Moulds. Lets hope a fight starts over him to drive that draft pick higher, we can only hope! I agree, get the best you can get for him. Any idea as to who the other 4 teams are?
JAMIEBUF12 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I agree, get the best you can get for him. Any idea as to who the other 4 teams are? 640202[/snapback] when a "agent" says there are 4 teams interested it usually means 2 teams and if he calls 4 teams and says hi that constitutes "interest" in his client lol
EC-Bills Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I'd actually be curious to see how he would do having a quarterback for a change.... 639767[/snapback] I agree. I think if he had a decent QB for his career up to this point, I think he would be a definite HOF candidate.
Buftex Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I agree. I think if he had a decent QB for his career up to this point, I think he would be a definite HOF candidate. 640415[/snapback] I like Moulds a lot, and would prefer he be back in Buffalo...that said, I think he lacks intensity sometimes. Now, that could be the result of playing with a suck-ass group of QB's over the last 10 years, or it could just be part of his game. I think he has dropped too many catchable passes, at clutch times, to think he would ever be a "definite" HOF'er.

I'm more impressed with WRs who make so-so quarterbacks look good.
Lurker Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Good point. I'm more impressed with WRs who make so-so quarterbacks look good. 640433[/snapback] You mean like the one's Eric's made look good here since Jimbo retired?
Wraith Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 You mean like the one's Eric's made look good here since Jimbo retired? 640443[/snapback] We've had a QB look good?
scribo Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 We've had a QB look good? 640469[/snapback] I think that was the point. Read: sarcasm.
beerme1 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I'm sure this has been said but, why would you trade for him when you know he's going to be cut and you can sign him for far less than he currently thinks he will get? And if he is cut and some other team out bids you for him, what have you really lost? Is one of these teams interested really looking at him like he would be the difference for them making the Super Bowl? Philly, Denver? Bueller?
Lori Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 We've had a QB look good? 640469[/snapback] Couple of them went to the Pro Bowl -- coincidentally (or not), in a year Moulds made it as well -- so I'd have to answer that question "yes".
MadBuffaloDisease Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I'm sure this has been said but, why would you trade for him when you know he's going to be cut and you can sign him for far less than he currently thinks he will get? Again, WHO said he's going to get cut?
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Mort said on Sportscenter a few minutes ago that Green Bay could jump into the Eric Moulds derby. Favre wants an improvement at WR and Mort suggested they could go after Moulds.

Favre wants an improvement at WR and Mort suggested they could go after Moulds. 640635[/snapback] Hmmm...I am not all that sure that would be greatly increase EM's chance of seeing the playoffs any time soon...Green Bay is not much, if at all, better than the Bills right now...also, I think it would be a stupid move by Green Bay, unless they signed him as a free agent...that team really needs to start re-building....

It would actually be stupid on Eric's part. On Green Bay's part it would be a good move. And while I doubt he ends up there, still it raises the stakes.
Dan Gross Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Again, WHO said he's going to get cut? 640634[/snapback] Clayton did, just before he said that the only reason that the Bills allowed Moulds to seek a trade is because the Bills wanted to keep Moulds...
Ramius Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Mort said on Sportscenter a few minutes ago that Green Bay could jump into the Eric Moulds derby.

Favre wants an improvement at WR and Mort suggested they could go after Moulds. 640635[/snapback] Did he say that they might trade for Moulds or that they might be interested if he became available?...which I assume means cut, because he clearly IS available.
