5 Potential Landing Spots for Chris Johnson

St. Louis Rams
Chris Johnson would add some explosiveness to this offense that could always use more firepower, he would be great running the ball and he can be dimensional in the passing game as well.  The Rams backfield is young and has little experience right now so adding a veteran on who can help would be huge for this team.  Sam Bradford would be glad to have another player help take the load off him and help open up the passing game.

New Orleans Saints
They traded Darren Sproles so they should really think about replacing him with Johnson who can be a number one back and is great in the open field once he gets going, he runs well and the Saints love screen passes.  Johnson’s speed would make him a threat in this offensive system.

Jacksonville Jaguars
It looks like Maurice Jones-Drew is not going to come back to the Jaguars, so they should go after Johnson and fill that need to help whoever is the quarterback down there in 2014 whether it be Chad Henne or a rookie.  This would also allow this team to use his abilities in all aspects on offense, a player like him can score on any play with his speed and skills.  The Jaguars need that, they were woeful at times on offense last year.

Arizona Cardinals
Rashard Mendenhall's early retirement means this team needs to be on the lookout for another running back, Chris Johnson is that guy.  The Cardinals already have one of the best receivers in the game and a stout defense, Johnson would help that team out.  With Carson Palmer at quarterback you never know what you will get so having a player who can help take the load when things get tough in a game is a must, and I believe Johnson will be just that.

Dallas Cowboys
Jerry Jones would love to have another flashy player on offense, Romo would have a reliable running back and Romo to Dez Bryant could become scary with a more formidable rushing attack to open up the play action game.  Question here is whether or not Jerry would pay him large amounts of money with a gutted defense.
