The thought of Dez on one side and Johnson on the other -- that's a intriguing thought.
1,400 yards receiving is nothing to sneeze at.

Texans, however are unwilling to deal him at present.

Jerra/Romo, if you are reading this, weigh in on this intriguing thought.

First, progress stopper to Terrance Williams and down. Second, it is my belief you only make a move for a high priced player when you are certain your about to make a serious run for a championship. Don't get me wrong, the idea certainly has merit; but the Cowboys would likely have to give up a draft pick or other promising young player, if not both, to bring him in house and there's no certainty we could keep him beyond this year, with Tyron Smith, Dez Bryant and Demarco Murray all due for a contract extension. Third, I'm not sure he would be a good locker room influence on the young players - hard working talent for sure, but he has a tendency to be a complainer, from what I understand.

the idea certainly has merit? lol

if we trade a 1st to Houston JJ Watt will be lining up with the star on his helmet. Not an overpriced old WR.

I'd love to have Johnson just to watch him beat down some clowns on the opposing rivals. I can see it now, this would be DeAngelo Hall and Johnson.



To be fair, Dez would probably murder him on the field if allowed to throw. Got that good crazy in em (funneled) :D

With long term possible problems along the defensive line, I don't see a single player need at wide receiver displacing an improved cap picture starting next season and the current era availability for defensive linemen in free agency now.

Did you read my entire response?

The idea of Andre Johnson and Dez lining up opposite does have merit; it is all the circumstances that surround such an acquisition that makes it a bad idea - what we would have to give up for him, him being a progress stopper to the young receivers presently on this team, how much we would have to pay to keep him, rather or not Johnson decides he doesn't want to play for Dallas, etc.

Somehow I thought you'd half a lot of dark hair and a tatoo. Pirate-like.

I do like the sportswear. Shows class and distinction. Are you a hipster? Do you play Velveteen Underground and Lady Gaga in your basement?

You need to bulk up. Try a shake with carrots and kale with sugar and lots of syrup. You will bulk up and in weeks you will be allowed to play football with the big guys.

You seem friendly and stuff. And not for one second do I belief your name is Susy.

I did. And enjoyed it. Did you read my response. I commented on the statement about Johnson as a Cowboy having merit. That was not making any sense. Then you went on to say that you're self. My point...cross out the merit statement.

Semantics. We agree in principle.
