If I were Andre Johnson I would be pissed. Not because the Texans dumped Jacoby Jones, but because they have never ever given him a truly decent No. 2 to deflect attention from him.

I wouldn't say it's for lack of trying. They brought in Jones to be the guy, and now have brought in Posey to be that guy. IMO he will pleasantly surprise next year; guy can play as long as he doesn't get free tats and sell his own merchandise

They've typically had much more pressing needs during his career unfortunately than finding a good #2 WR. We also utilize the Tight Ends quite a bit and still have Owen Daniels there

1) We can't afford it. We are dumping salary not adding. We just gave Foster a bigger contract. If we had any extra money it went to him.

2) I think we are hoping Posey, Martin, or Iglesias step up. We're kinda playing money ball with these receivers right now.
