What If? Andre Johnson Never Comes to Houston

What if the Texans decide not to draft Andre Johnson in 2003 with the 3rd pick, instead going a different direction?

Coming into the 2003 draft, it seems apparent to just about everyone that the Texans’ offense needed some serious help. The team was among the worst offenses in NFL history. They only musted 13.3 pts/game. They were 32nd in passing and 31st in rushing yards. The offensive line...was quite offensive. The receiving corps offered little in the way of consistency or big-play ability. The running backs did their part to contribute CO2 for local plant life to thrive and engage in photosynthesis, but did little outside of that.
