Andre Johnson says he's been wondering if this is the place for him. Says he doesn't plan to be at OTAs or minicamp currently. #Texans

Johnson said losing has been frustrating him. Mentioned being on his third head coach. #Texans

yes

IWSH

What's his contract look like?

Don't like the fit he is throwing but yes please.

So.....he has no real qualms other than tired of being on a losing team?

So.....he's giving up on his team?

Hrmmm.....interdasting. I never thought he was that kinda guy.

He's good for 2 solid years IMO. I would take a flyer on him, draft a WR next year and let him groom under Bowe and Johnson.

yes, give our first next year and something else.

I found this on this contract.

Why not two 2nds? LMAO

He'll be a Patriot.

Put down the pipe.

No way, hopefully you're being sarcastic.

Or give him a second round and a third round and if he does good than that third round become a second round.

FYP

No, way too much money owed for a 32 year old WR.

**** that.

He's getting old (33 before the season starts), has a huge contract and is dinged up every season.

I'd offer a 4th and would accept a trade for a 3rd. He's got a hefty contract.

3rd head coach in 12 years is nothing. Probably speaks to how much of a Pats dolt that O'Brien is.

Guy is 46 years old. I'll pass.

He will be a Raider?

What kind of guy? A guy that would rather win than lose?

A guy that would quit on his teammates and fans.

Larry Fitzgerald has been on some shit teams with even shittier QBs and that dude's never complained a day in his life.

Andre Johnson has been nothing but class (except when he dicked that little douche Finnegan) his entire career so I don't agree that he's a quitter, but this is definitely uncharacteristic for him.

Dude wants to win.

I'd take him, but only after he was cut. No way you can deal with that contract.

This deal with Andre has been brewing for the better part of a year now. Before last season, his agent informed the Texans that he wanted an extension so he could, "Retire a Texan." The Texans refused because they have JJ Watt, and other deals to do after this season and they had questions with Schaub and others last season in that they didn't know how it would all play out, not to mention AJ's age. A.J feels like he's been loyal to the team, when he didn't have to be, and could have played elsewhere for more $$$, but he didn't, Dude just wants a ring now that he's nearing the end of his career. My bet is he goes elsewhere, he ends up with Kubes in Baltimore - Dude (when healthy) is still a top 5 WR and if KC can get him somehow they should do it, - Just my opinion. Deal is though, his contract is a problem and he's starting to get those nagging injuries that seem to signal the decline of aging players.

Not if he wants to win and doesn't like a coaching carousel.

Not paying 21.5 over the next 2 for a guy of his age, 32, either.

More like 32...

That's bullshit. A player's goal is to win. If you're constantly losing, there's absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to go to a team that wins.

Dorsey likes player/player trades, so go straight up for Flowers and call it a day.

When players / people feel "slighted", they do weird things. In his eyes, the Texans have disrespected him.

The Texans would do that in a second.

The man is 77 years old.

But really, I thought the Texans did some nice things in the draft, why should he be so mad, his defense is about to be a pass rushing nightmare and they also got a QB with some solid bona fides.

21.5? Think again.

Especially when you could have gone elsewhere for more $$$, when the team was a perennial loser, but chose to stay.

Yep.

Don't care about the contract. Want the talent.

Oh yeah, you're right. My bad...

Chase Daniel and Brandon Flowers.....straight up.

DONE

I'd give them Eric Fisher

I would die
he is my favorite

Trade every pick that is in the same round as a compensation pick in 2015.

He's going to be 33 Before the season starts.

33.

When's the last time he played a full season?

Add in the size of his contract....

Does it REALLY make sense?

Anything more than a 3rd-4th (and that's pushing it) is overpaying.

Or whatever talent is left. He's getting old and he's battled nagging injuries every season. He's good for a 1-2 year flyer on a team that's ready to compete for a SB NOW.

It's not a good fit for the Chiefs.

Played a full season in 2012. Last season he missed a couple of games. 2011 he missed more than just a few.

Oh **** yeah!

Don't need no 1,400 yard receivers here.

If it was 5 years ago, sure.

If he is cut or traded the Texans eat the signing and roster bonuses as well as any and all other bonuses.
He is due 10.5 this year and 11 next year in base salary.

What are you thinking?

I'd be pissed too if my FO did nothing except sign Ryan Fitzpatrick and draft a 4th round QB in Tom Savage.

and SIGNED KENDRICK LEWIS!!!!! ROFL

In 2011 he only started 7 games due to injury. Other than that year, here is his production:

2013: 109 catches, 1,407 yards, 5 TD's.
2012: 112 catches, 1,598 yards, 4 TD's.
2010: 86 catches, 1,216 yards, 8 TD's.

Even in his 2011 injury year, he only played in 7 games and still managed 33 catches/492 yards, which is under 200 yards less than Dwayne Bowe had ALL SEASON last year.

Oh yeah, and that's with Matt Schaub as his QB.

Trade them Flowers for Johnson. I wish.

"Whatever talent is left" was still good enough for 1400 yards last year.

Maybe...

I'd be good with it, but he does seem hurt quite a bit.

I will now gracefully bow out. Despite his dings, he's productive as ****.

But his injury history, age and contract are still very bothersome.

I know the kind of player he is because I've seen nearly every game he's played. Dude is a top 5 WR when healthy and he's slipped a bit ONLY because of nagging injuries.

They would have to give us a pick as well. Flowers for Johnson+5th rd pick that could turn into a 3rd

Yeah, I just checked and the dude is a yardage BEAST. Only averages 14 games a season but still goes for 1,150 per. That's an insane average over an 11 year career.

He has yet to crack 10 TDs in a single season though. I wonder how a guy can be so productive as far as catches and yards go but lag so significantly in TDs.. Strange.

Its a fun subject to banter and dream about, but the 100% fact of the matter is that no matter what happens... he WONT be coming to Kansas City.

Contract doesn't bother me. We could spend 10M on him this year and cut him with no cap hit next year.

Probably Denver...

Absolutely.

I look at it this way. He was an elite, top 2-3 WR in the league. Now, he's probably top ten, which is elite by our standards.

Off topic.....but ****ing hell.

Demaryius Thomas
Wes Welker
Emmanuel Sanders
Andre Caldwell
Cody Latimer

Trade rumors show Oakland and Cleveland....

Ummmmm yes please.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK

Yeah, this guy is going to Boston or Denver.

Probably Denver, where he will be part of 15 win regular season team only to get destroyed in the playoffs by a team that actually plays defense.

So they're carrying 6 WRs?

LOL! Just kidding. He and Kubes were VERY close so my guess is IF he goes anywhere, it will be to the Ravens now that Gary is their OC.

Do we have patriot trash to trade em?

That would be some kind of ****ing karma if they landed Andre Johnson after not taking a WR in the draft.

And especially after what happened with Emmanuel Sanders...

And have Schaub throw to him again! ROFL

Damn that would be funny. I don't wish that on AJ.

I'm fully convinced that Peyton Manning will retire going 1-3 in Superbowls :)

Raiders or Cleveland? WTF!?! Just stay in Houston JFC.

Arian Foster.

Thinking the same thing...But you KNOW that kind of thing doesn't happen to KC...

Karma bitch slaps the Chiefs and he lands in Denver, cuz THAT KIND OF THING DOES happen to KC...ROFL
