Updating previous reports, Rich Cimini, of the New York Daily News, reports New York Jets QB Chad Pennington was slated to receive a $3 million roster bonus, but he forfeited it as part of his renegotiation with the team. Overall, he took a 66 percent pay cut. His base salary was also lowered from $6 million to $3 million. While the salary is guaranteed and his roster spot virtually is too, it is not definite he will retain his starting job.

It would be nice if Moulds were that accomodating.

Please Moulds. Just do it!
Don't jeopardize your Hall of Fame spot only for money.

Re: Pennington forfeits roster bonus

You guys are nuts. Before the shoulder surgery, Pennington had a rag arm. No way he could command $3 mil on the FA market.

Moulds knows his market value, and is unwilling to play for less for a losing team.

I can't say that I blame him.

Moulds will not come close to the money in FA that he's presently scheduled to make...

HOF? In his and a handful of his fans own minds maybe.

Chad is NOT only doing this to be loyal. No way he makes that much money on the open market.

I agree with clump, Moulds isn't going to make anywhere near the money he thinks. He should forfit the reporting bonus and take the 1.83 mill cap cut and be done with it.

Re: Pennington forfeits roster bonus

Most of you guys are right, but I think Moulds just wants a chance to win a ring. His time left is limited so he is probably thinking pay me big or else I am going to try and get that ring. I can't fault him for that.

Moulds could of been a Hall Of Fame WR if he didn't have Alex Van Pelt, Rob Johnson, Drew Bledsoe, JP Losman, Kelly Holcomb, Billy Joe Hobert, Todd Collins throwing the ball to him. Name 1 Hall of Fame WR that has had
8 different QBs throwing to him during his career?

Is what he's presently scheduled to make next year the same amount he made last year?

Sounds like an excuse to me. The GREAT ones never make excuses...but then again we are talking about moulds....

Re: Pennington forfeits roster bonus

Comparing Moulds and Pennington's situations is like comparing apples to oranges. Pennington's injuries may very well end his career. The Jets almost did him a favor. Moulds is a beast that has never missed much playing time due to injury. He plays hard, even harder after getting benched to audition for his new team.

Re: Pennington forfeits roster bonus

I agree that Moulds couldn't get his existing contract numbers in FA, but he thinks he can get more than Marv is offering now in a restructure deal.
