    On Friday, the Titans cut running back Chris Johnson. Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Johnson currently is expected to pick his next team by the middle of next week. It's still unclear where he will land, although the strongest link appears to be to the Jets. Given the extended availability of Johnson via trade and the protracted stretch of time in which it was inevitable he'd be cut, interested teams have had plenty of time to do their work and come to a conclusion as to level of interest and financial commitment. Don't be surprised if Johnson ultimately does a one-year deal that allows him to get back to the open market on the first day of 2015 free agency, and don???t be shocked if the base value is a lot closer to $3.5 million (the current top of the market) than $8 million.

    I hear Atlanta is looking hard at him. Guess the Jackson experiment is over.

    Football wise here are the teams I think he should sign with.

    New England
    Carolina
    Denver
    New Orleans


    However from a fantasy perspective ALL the above suck.

    The Giants would be silly not to throw money at him.. I hope they don't but that would be silly

    you can delete us from that consideration. there would be no way we would be able to afford him. I like our backs we have already.

    If Johnson were smart, he'd be on the phone with John Elway.

    I'd take Chris Johnson on the Bears but for the right price.

    There is no right price for the ego saturated Johnson...
