Has he shown the elite numbers yet? no...but he has the ability to do so in the right situation. Elite speed, elite route running skills and he catches everthing thrown to him.
I have no doubt he will be an elite WR and it would be awful to think of him playing in a Dolphin or Pats uniform.

Injured every season?
In his 10-year career, Johnson has 5 seasons where he played every game.
Here are the total number of games played when he was injured:
2005- 13
2007- 9
2010- 13
2011- 7
So out of 160 games, Johnson has only missed 22 games due to injury.
Also, you don't think 1,500 yards is an elite number for a WR? Johnson has exceeded that 3 times, including last year.
He is an elite WR in the NFL.
