5 Potential Landing Spots for Mark Sanchez

The Jets cut quarterback Mark Sanchez this past Friday and signed Michael Vick ending the Sanchez era in the Big Apple.

Sanchez will have to prove himself to start anywhere in this league considering how awful he was his last 2 seasons starting in NY followed by last season's surgery where he missed all of 2013.

Here are some teams I could Sanchez signing with:

St. Louis Rams
Sam Bradford has had injury issues since coming into the league in 2010, Sanchez could be that insurance right behind Bradford on the depth chart.  As of right now Austin Davis and Brady Quinn are the backups, I would say Sanchez is an upgrade over those quarterbacks.

Cleveland Browns
The Browns has Brian Hoyer and Alex Tanney on their roster right now in the QB position, I think the Browns like Hoyer enough to make him the starter this year, but adding competition would not be bad.  The only thing I can see deterring the Browns from signing him is if they go after a QB in the upcoming draft which I think they will do.

Tennessee Titans
The Titans parted ways with journeyman Ryan Fitzpatrick who signed with the Texans, and with Jake Locker coming back from an injury Sanchez could be a backup who could even possibly push to start if Locker is having issues coming back healthy.

Green Bay Packers
They could use a veteran quarterback to backup Aaron Rodgers in 2014, Sanchez would also learn from one of the game's best quarterbacks and maybe regain his confidence and start somewhere else in 2015 or even be traded for some value if he shows promise again.

And just for the heck of it... The Seattle Seahawks 
Call me crazy but this could work out, Sanchez played for Pete Carroll at USC and a reunion could help fix Sanchez.  Carroll would know his strengths and weaknesses and could help develop him, he could compete to backup Russell Wilson by battling it out with Tavaris Jackson.
