Does this just make too much sense? (Andre Johnson wants out of Houston)

[Bourne Again Christian]

Reportedly Andre Johnson hungry for a Superbowl has publically reported his dismay and is planning to skip otas and all team activities.
Mallett for Johnson really this makes to much sense not to happen doesn't it?

 

[Big-T]

No, because why would you trade an all-pro WR for a QB who's never played a meaningful snap in NFL who also happens to be in a contract year?

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

This 4,000th Mallet trade scenario was worth another thread?

Bring Back Ignore Thread!

 

[Ring 6]

You are joking right? Or can we throw in Bequette and get Watt too?

There is no Mallet to Houston any more, they chose Savage.

 

[dales804]

Sure, makes plenty of sense for NE. For HOU, not so much.

Okay, this has some potential! A long shot maybe, but crazier things have happened, let's see what his proposal is:

Mallett for Johnson

I'm guessing Houston does not want to take on nearly $12 million of dead money to their cap by trading their best player on offense.

Andre Johnson doesn't plan to attend OTAs or minicamp and said he's been "wondering if [Houston] is the place for him."


Have at it.

With this attitude ?? BB loves it.

Door still not closed on Mallett-to-Texans | Comcast SportsNet - CSNNE.com

And...


“@taniaganguli: 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”



Do you think???

I'd be more interested in checking whether Mallett in Houston would make Johnson any happier. I don't think the money adds up on either side for a Mallett-Johnson trade. The Texans would take on eight-figure dead money, while the Pats already have money invested in three WRs and can't save any by cutting or trading any of them.

Quickest way to kill a Thread is to let it drop off the front page.

Someone very nice made a thread about an article that went into great depth about the inherent unpredictability of the NFL Draft that's gotten no replies..

Still one has to wonder how much McDaniels and Belichick O'Brien might have in him. Imagine what might be in Johnson's future if he was playing for either of them.

 

[JMC00]

Never would happen.

#1- Houston wouldn't give him up for just Mallett, probably would take additional draft picks
#2- Haven't looked at Johnson's contract but i'm guessing unless he agrees to restructure there is no way Pats could get him in under the cap
#3- Don't think Houston would trade him to someone in the conference

NOW I know why Texxxxxxxx has been here complaining about how Pats fans are always too satisfied!

 

[goheels22002]

Andre Johnson has a load of a contract left: $6.5M in 2014, 10.5M in 2015, $11M in 2016. He gets a $1M workout bonus for showing up at required camps. He's a good deal in 2014 at 32, but after that, he was going to get cut or re-work his deal anyway.

I'd sit still until O'Brien cuts him, which is what he has to do. These knuckleheads who think they can stare down a new head coach just don't get it.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

It would cost us mallett plus 2015 first rounder. It sounds tempting.

 

[chasa]

in a stunning three way trade, the 49's get johnson, the ravens get crabtree, and the texans get two 3rd round picks(one from ravens, one from 49's)

it could happen

 

[TBR]

It makes sense for us if they cut him. A trade would be difficult.

 

[MrNathanDrake]

Mallet + Amendola + 4th rd pick

for

Andre Johnson + 5th rd pick

I know its not a fair trade but its better than nothing for both teams.
