Andre Johnson is even better than advertised
May 9, 2007 Andre Johnson, Michigan Wolverines, Teams that aren't the Texans, The Schaub Experiment
In case you needed any more proof, Andre Johnson is special. Of the 31 receivers taken in the first round between 2000 and 2006, ‘Dre is one of very few who are still with the team that drafted them. More importantly, he is part of the very small group (5 other guys, tops) who can be called true #1 receivers.
So, no surprise, drafting is not an exact science, especially when it comes to WR. (I have to admit completely airballing on David Terrell and Charles Rogers. I thought both would be stars from Day 1. Of course, the former can probably be chalked up to homerism.) Still, for all the questions the Texans have had about their drafts in recent years, you have to give them credit for ‘Dre. Somewhere, Matt Schaub is smiling.
