Scout.com: TE Daniels Gets High Tender

Texans TE Owen Daniels gets a $2.8 million tender. The Buffalo Bills, should they still be interested in pursuing him, will need to compensate Houston with Round 1 and Round 3 draft picks to make the deal happen.

That's a deal breaker, folks. Buffalo is unlikely to seriously pursue Daniels.

Oh darn. It wasn’t meant to be.

Agreed – can’t say I blame them at all though – he’s a good player.

Oh. Uh, will you hold my wallet for me while I take the test, please? There's a thousand dollars in there... or maybe there isn't. Know what I mean?

You can still try and work out a trade, altough i doubt Houston will be interested in anything that doesn’t bring them a first round pick in return.

Was there any talk ever coming from Houston that they’d even want to trade him?

BG – Has anyone from the SB Houston blog ever hinted at anything like that?

No and no. He’s staying.

TERRIBLE news. This is by far the las thing I wanted to hear. Not REALLY surprised though. I just really thought he could have helped us and Trent out IMMEDIATELY.

The time to deliver is now and if you fail to do so you will no doubt witness the consequences first hand.

They best stay away from him now.

This would not be a wise trade for a team with so many needs.

Not suprised

and actually kind of happy about it. I didn’t want to give away high pics for him.

Besides we have a good developping TE in Fine. If you compare Daniel’s first season with Fine’s they are very simular. I say we let Fine develop, i have confidence that he’s the TE we’re looking for.
