Not that Wallace is great or anything, but I get the feeling that Andre only has a couple years left, and those may not be as a top shelf WR. He's always hurt.
He'd make a lot of sense for New England or Denver. KC might do it, but that team isn't that close. I have similar feelings about Baltimore, but they have a puncher's chance in the AFC. His price tag will have a lot to do with who (if anyone) trades for him. I don't see any of the top teams giving up too much, but if you get to that 4th RD range, that'd make sense.
Ryan Mallett for Andre Johnson straight up wouldn't make a lot of sense would it....
God Damn that would piss me off!
And where would NE get the cap space for this new toy? Fantasy land.

I'm not sure people really comprehend the impact Mike Wallace has on our offense. He can have a game in which he catches 0 balls, yet still greatly benefits our offense by opening up the field for the other receivers and the running backs. It was his first year in a new system with a completely inept offensive coordinator. Now before someone tells me that he's going to be in a new system again this year, I know, however the assumption is that Bill Lazor isn't as incompetent as Sherman. At this point, I wouldn't want to swap Mike Wallace for Andre Johnson at all, no way. I expect Wallace to have a bounce back year with this new offense, as he'll be moved around to create mismatches, something Sherman didn't do at all last year in his prehistoric offense. I know OP isn't calling for Wallace's head or even hating on him, but a lot of people need to ease up on the Mike Wallace hatred until he can prove himself this year.
So today I'v read NE is going to trade for Andre Johnson, Josh Gordon and Justin Blackmon. This could cause some problems for Miami.
