Andre Johnson Unsure Of Future With Houston

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Yeah, yeah, yeah... I know; it's another speculation thread, but it's better than sitting around talking about Greg Hardy all day.

 

According to Andre Johnson himself, he is unsure of if he wants to return to the Texans and may seek a potential trade.

 

As of right now Johnson has no plans to participate in Houston's mandatory offseason activities or mini-camp and it seems as though he is taking his time collecting his thoughts.

 

Johnson was quoted as saying the following: "Now I'm on my third head coach, that's something I give thought to," Johnson said. "I just look over my career, is it a place? I've only been to the playoffs twice. I think we've only had three winning seasons, two 8-8 seasons. I don't think any player wants to experience that.

 

Johnson is 32 and on the tail end of his career (maybe three or four more years), but he might be someone worth checking out if the price is right.

 

Another thing to factor in his how great of a mentor and guide Johnson would be for KB.

 

What do you say, stay away or check it out?

Only if he's willing to play for peanuts.

Not to burst our collective bubble, but we've never had back to back winning seasons. If his problem is consistent winning, why would he come here?

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

I forgot to point out, the situation at hand would require us moving Hardy as well.

We're a team on the rise, we have weaknesses but our weaknesses get blown out of proportion because those weaknesses are so bad (like LT and RT).

 

Overall, there's not much of a difference between this years team and last years divisional team (talent wise).

[Cary Kollins]

sure why not but in reality if he goes anywhere it'll be SF, Seattle, NE or Denver

Uh you might want to take a little look at his contract and the salary cap hits.

It would be an interesting kick the tires kind of thing, but as previously mentioned Hardy would have to be traded this offseason... or some maneuvering around a few contracts like DeAngelo William's and another small contract.

 

According to Over the Cap the Panthers are $5 mil under the cap, cutting D-Will right now saves $4 mil for this year bringing that total to $9 mil and Johnson's contract for this year is at $10 mil (I think).

No

Cap hits mean nothing to the team he'd be traded to. New team would only be responsible for base salaries.

 

Still not going to happen but figured I share the info.

Andre Johnson is set to have a $16 million dollar cap hit in 2015 with the Texans.

Only if the Texans release him.  However we don't have much money to sign him.
