Not sure how he would react to primarily being a decoy but his history does not make me optimistic. Considering the money he apparently wants, I think I would pass.
I suspect the Texans will go mid-level. For deep threats, someone like Robert Meachum, Harry Douglas, or even Pierre Garcon. Could also see getting an older short-term rental like Reggie Wayne if the price is right. Also, maybe Danny Amendola for slot receiver/punter returner.
Finally, I agree with WMH, I think they concentrate on their own free agents. If we can get Mario, Arian, and Myers signed, it will be an enormously successful offseason.

The fly in that ointment is that the reason there hasn't been enough balls for anyone except AJ, is probably because there was no other logical choice other than AJ. Walter can't get consistant separation, and JJ can't be counted on to run his route correctly, much less catch the ball. A viable 2nd threat at WR would open up a whole lot of options for the the passing gamethat have not been there before.
