What ever happened to him? He was a good player as a bill and played with the bills for a long time! Was there a bad wrap with him and buffalo when he left? You never hear about him anymore.

 

...sure was.....he got all bent out of shape when his consecutive catch string was broken with zero pass attempts his way....had his "publicist(??)" reported that "Eric was very upset with the Bills organization because his consecutive catch string was broken"...a huge TEAM RECORD, right?...he got into a big tussle with Moolarkey and Ralph had to fly in from Detroit to hold his hand and calm the diva down...burned every bridge on his way outta town to Houston....sure he was on the roster through some very frustrating times, but take the high road out.......

He had a terrific career with Buffalo.  During his final few years with the team, it was clear that his skills were diminishing.  He was no longer the explosive deep threat that he once once.  By the time he left for Houston, he was on the downside of his career.  At one time, he averaged 20+ yards per attempt on 67 receptions.  His yardage was down to under 10 yards per catch.   

 

Still he has a very very good career with the Bills and I’d love to see him leading the heard at a home game someday

I knew something was up, but was unaware of all that.

Keep in mind, this was 2005.  Moulds’ better days were behind him.  The team got rid of him, but you can’t blame them.  He was out of the league two years later

...here's a kid that was Ralph's prized possession......and to do what he did and how he did it, expressing his discontent through an effin' "publicist"?......guess his SECRETARY had the day off......lost ALL respect for him.....

 

Honestly, who cares? His talents were wasted on terrible teams, playing with terrible QB's and for terrible coaches.

 

Every single fan of the team has said much worse about the team than he has.

 

He was an awesome player and deserves to be remembered for that, not a single moment of frustration with the garbage organization he played for.

I seem to remember that we had to choose between Moulds and Pat Williams

 

Really wanted to keep Pat who went on to be pretty good for the Vikings.

 

Didn’t he also get into a bit of trouble on the famous Vikings booze cruise?

You don't mess with a man's team record

We all have bad days. Seems Eric Moulds thought pretty highly of Ralph Wilson.

I remember a few years back when Reggie Wayne played a whole game without a catch and the whole game the announcers were lamenting him losing his team record.

 

Well at the end of the game they threw him a little screen pass to keep his record going. There's no reason the Bills couldn't have done something like that for Moulds.
