Two posts and no one has yet suggested we trade Fitz for him. (lol)

Keep Fitz, add Johnson to one year contract at vet minimum
Now there's PLAN!

I don't really disagree with him..
I think some of us forget that talent like this usually comes from highly competitive individuals.. It must suck ass to be THAT good, and walk away a loser more times than not.
I would have a lot more compassion for him if he said something like "I'll take a large paycut if it means I can play for an organization that doesn't have it's head up it's arse.

I see what you did there.

Yall are hating. Andre Johnson isn't the typical team hopper. He's a veteran leader with great character.
He's done his time in Houston and they refused to put any good players/coaches around him so why the hell should he want to stay around for another long rebuild?
Jeez yea what an idiot, the future HOFer wants to go somewhere where the team doesn't actually suck before he retires....what a loser...

One of the all-time overrated players. A receiver good at yard padding outside of the endzone, vanishes in big games, vanishes in the red-zone.
The comparisons to him and Larry were always a joke.

Its sports, there are no participation awards in the pros.
If he doesn't like losing, he should start by looking in the mirror.
One of the most overrated players of all-time if you ask me.
Fitzgerald posted the greatest post-season of all-time (and that's a fact) when he was in the playoffs. What did Johnson do ?
Given the egos of so many pro divas, I would think Andre is entitled to one reflection in 11 years of playing for that wreck of an organization. His supporting cast has been minimal, yet every year they speak about taking some of the pressure off of him with quality. It has never happened. He is a beast on the field.
The guy has been on a perrenial loser his entire career and they are not doing much to get better. I would be upset as well. You see that QB list? Ouch. If we didnt get Carson Larry would be feeling the same way.
It is not like he started to pout and walked off field without celebrating an nFC Çhampionship.

It wasn't during NFC Championship game, but Johnson definitely pouted and walked off the field after last season.
There are so many great players that never get to play in a Super Bowl, and even less that win it. Thus Johnson is not thinking in the realm of reality.

How many career playoff appearances does Larry Fitzgerald have? Remember when your boy Q sat out OTAs and minicamps with a mysterious "hamstring" injury?
I love Andre Johnson. He's Larry Fitzgerald with more speed. He's not a diva receiver; whatever waves he makes are in March, April, and May and never once it's time to play football. Despite a fair amount of injuries, he's always managed to be a productive receiver, with only 1 season under 1200 yards in the last six years(!).
He could be more productive in the end zone, but he's been part of a rush-first offense that tends to want to take the ball out of Schaub's hands when money gets on the line.

Can't really blame him, the team looked they were going to be a perennial contender to at least get in the playoffs and then they self destructed last year. Just had flashbacks of that TD versus us where he went grown ass man on our LB's and secondary.

Don't talk to me about perennial losers. We both (used to)root for one but how many players play on sub par teams and don't whine about it? Don't remember him whining when they were 12-4 just 2 seasons ago. And they just had a great draft top to bottom. In that division it wouldn't surprise me to see them back over .500.

I wonder if he wanted the team to draft Johnny or Bortles? He has Clowney
and Watt on his team and he is crying? I wonder if the Patriots come sniffing
around for a trade?

Sounds to me that he is 32, knows he cant play much longer, his team is doing nothing to improve and he wants out.
Were you mad when Barry retired because the Lions wouldnt let him leave? I was sad he retired but not mad at him for his decision.
Maybe they made promices to him and didnt keep up with them. Ive never heard a peep out of him in his entire career until recently, the man is unhappy and wants out. I have no reason to judge him for that.
