Do we still want him? : <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Look for Suh deal to be massive. I keep hearing$17M/year and $60M-plus guaranteed.

He's one of the best I've ever seen at showing up 2 steps after someone else has made the play and piling on.
Hartline isn't replacing Andre Johnson; he's (more or less) replacing Keyshawn Martin/Demarius Johnson (ie he would be a significant upgrade). If BOB is building his offense smiliar to the system he helped construct/run in NE, the other WR will likely be a fast afterthought.

Would It be weird if the Colts got Andre and We got Reggie? Not that I'm an advocate for Reggie, but that would be pretty damn hilarious lol.
Wow; third team in... what? Four years? And he's not terribly expensive, given his production. He must be an issue of some kind in the locker room.
Isn't he the one that was batting down balls in practice a few years ago? I saw a Football Life on him and I believe he actually has a real mental disorder.
wtf? hartline will take less money to pay with brady but not us? did he not get the memo? we do things the patriots way here..grrr! On kareem, I have mixed feelings. He is the best at jamming and being physical but five years in and he has barely improved on locating the ball. I still love how joseph plays when healthy. One of those two has to be kept though. Our young defensive backs of bouye and rolle had as much impact as some of the best 1st, 2nd and 3rd round cbs from the 2013 draft class. And with how coach likes players to play multiple positions, I would not be surprised if morris becomes a FS. All of them can cover. Bouye still gets knocked around within the 5 yards by the Aj greens of the league but that's technique. Love the potential of our defense just got to stock up on Linebackers (insert parcells quote on LBs)
The bears organization is a mess. Marshall was the least of their problems. When they were playing well everyone loved him but when they were playing bad he became a problem. Yes, he talks a lot but he's a great story and inspiration to so many. This is similar to what is going on in Houston. Jeffry's rise made Marshall replaceable and he is not the new coach's guy.
Maybe; but this is his fourth (!) team since 2010, and the third to trade him. And it's not like he's overpaid or underperforming. He's 27, a top 5-10 WR in football and he's currently the 16th highest paid player at his position. Heck, he's not even the highest paid WR on his new team (Eric Decker). And the Bears are eating nearly $6MM for a 5th round pick. I don't know who he's inspiring or why but it's pretty hard to fathom a legitimate narrative in which he's just been routinely misunderstood, etc. And it seems to run a lot deeper than just money. The Bears could have had him and Jeffery for less than the Texans were paying AJ.
Marshall only going about 7 million against the cap next year. Texans should have taken that in a heartbeat.
