8 teams that make the most sense in an Antonio Brown blockbuster trade, ranked

Why it makes sense: The Raiders have three first-round picks, so they have the draft capital needed to land Brown. He would give the offense a much-needed lift — Derek Carr had few viable options to throw to once the team traded Amari Cooper.

The one concern is Brown's timeline vs. the Raiders'. Brown is 30 and wants a new deal. The Raiders do have Derek Carr under a $125 million contract, but the team is otherwise fairly young and going through a rebuild.

Why it makes sense: The Jets are looking to make improvements across the board this year, particularly on offense to help Sam Darnold. Their leading receiver in 2018 was Robby Anderson, who had 50 catches (92nd in the league) for 752 yards (37th).

There are rumors they're looking to trade down in the draft. Could they trade down, acquire an extra pick, then flip it for Brown? With rumors suggesting they're also targeting Le'Veon Bell, the Jets could reunite two-thirds of the "Killer Bs."

Why it makes sense: The Packers were not involved in the Brown bidding, according to ESPN's Rob Demovsky. But they were once believed to be involved — maybe they could get back in. Why not target Brown to give Aaron Rodgers the help he needs? He may not solve all of their problems, but Brown could certainly ignite a stagnant Packers offense.

Why it makes sense: There has been a buzz about the 49ers and Brown, but 49ers GM John Lynch said they weren't in on the Brown chase.

Maybe that should change. The 49ers already committed big money to Jimmy Garoppolo. Brown could be a weapon next to tight end George Kittle, who had a breakout season in 2018 and seemed to try to recruit Brown this offseason.

Why it makes sense: Marcus Mariota's best receiver, Corey Davis, has been inconsistent through two years in the NFL. Mariota is in the final year of his contract. Adding Brown could give Mariota more help and let the Titans see if Mariota is their man going forward. The Titans have reportedly been in contact with the Steelers.

Why it makes sense: The Panthers need to upgrade the receivers around Cam Newton. Why not target Brown? Even wide receiver Devin Funchess said that would be a fun combination.

Why it makes sense: Yes, really. The weapons around Tom Brady mostly struggled last season. Rob Gronkowski's future is up in the air, and even if he returns, he doesn't appear to be the same player. Julian Edelman turns 33 in May. Brown could give Brady and the Patriots a dynamic weapon, perhaps as a chance to go all-in one last time in the twilight of Brady's career.
