    Moulds deal as good as done

    4 years, 14 million is what Moulds agreed to yesterday.

    What do you think Buffalo deserves to get in return?

    Bills wide-out Eric Moulds has agreed in principle to a 4-year deal worth 14 million dollars with the Houston Texans, according to ESPN's Len Pasquarelli. The deal is said to include a 5-million dollar signing bonus.

    Buffalo and Houston, the teams not the metropoli, must agree on a trade before Moulds can officially become a Texan. The wide-out is scheduled to meet with the Texans coaching staff and officials, and undergo officials. The sources say no deal will be struck before the meeting.

    Re: Moulds deal as good as done

    I think the Bills are right to hold out for a 4th. A 5th round pick is an insult.
    I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

    I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

      I think marv asked for a 3rd. If they don't pony up a 4th Moulds better go ahead and go back home and not waste his time in Houston right now.

        I agree with ICE. Did I just say that?

              I think a 3rd is what they should get, but a 4th is what they will get

                  If I were the Texans I wouldn't give the Bills anything- and wait until they cut him.

                  Seattle just fell out of contention with the Burrelson signing, Patriots & Eagles aren't going to give him $14 million.

                  The Texans have all the leverage

                    Houston's fourth might as well be a third. And their fifth might as well be a fourth...maybe that's the argument they're making.

                      They have zero leverage. It's simple, we let him sit. Even with him on the roster we will have 6.5 mill available going into the season. Then next year we gain about 15 more mill due to cap overage coming off and a 7mill increase in the cap.

                      So how is it they have leverage again? Moulds can sit and turn 33, 34 and do nothing for two years then he can go.

                        And the argument I would make would be we are 32 picks apart. We need your 4th or this deal is dead.

                          And the Bills can pay out $17 million or whatever the contract calls for.

                          The Texans have time and cap space on their side. They are only competing against themselves in the Moulds sweepstakes.

                            We have cap room as well. I say let his ass sit for the next two years. Screw him and whomever thinks they have leverage over the Bills (Whatevere team, Texans, Eagles etc) . I have shown we don't have to cut him and still have TONS of cap room. To hell with Moulds and the Texans and moulds personal advisor. If he wants out then get the Texans to pony up the pick. Other wise be at the manditory mini camps coming up or get your arse fined.
