Stop gap? Was Key stop gap? You must of thought Keyshawn sucked because Moulds is much more productive than KeyShawn.
He played with Bledsoe before and they were comfortable together combining for alot of yards in the past.
Moulds doesn't want to play for Buffy for any amount, but he would come here to Dallas for 3 million which is not only about what we were offering the less talanted Keyshawn but also more or equal to the amount anyone else might pay to him in Free Agency.

To my untrained eye it looks like Keyshawn has more catches for more yards and more TDs in about the same number of games played over the same number of seasons.
It also looks like their productivity over the past two years is pretty darn similar.
I just don't see the giant difference you are referring to here.
I do know that we had Keyshawn for a cheap price and decided to let him walk because he was unhappy. Why do we want to deal with someone else's headache? We already have one disgruntled WR in TO and another who may be unhappy with his current contract in Glenn. You now want to add a 3rd disgruntled WR over the age of 30?
