Thank you SteelerNation for a big 9 years...time to move on and forward.......... Antonio Brown (@AB84) The Steelers are now officially fielding phone calls for Brown, and according to general manager Kevin Colbert, three teams in Pressley Harvin III Jersey trading for the Pro Bowl wide receiver. La Canfora , which means things are going to start getting serious next week. The combine kicks off on Feb. 26 and runs through March 4.So where will Brown end up? Glad you asked.We've ranked eight potential landing spots below and four spots where he almost certainly won't end up. Also, La Canfora has reported that the Steelers would , which is why we've gone NFC heavy at the top of our list below.With that in mind, let's check out the top-eight landing spots for Brown.1. The 49ers receiving corps could definitely use a boost and Brown would provide that instantly. In 2018, the 49ers leading receiver wasn't even a receiver -- it was tight end , who set an NFL record for tight ends with 1,377 yards. (The 49ers' leading wide receiver was , who finished the year with just 487 yards). Kittle also caught 88 pa ses and it appears that he would have no problem sharing some of that load with Brown, and we know that because he's already to San Francisco. Sup? George Kittle (@gkittle46) As for Brown, he definitely seemed intrigued by the idea. Not only did , but he also "liked" a picture that someone posted of him Photoshopped into a 49ers uniform. Sure looks like Antonio Brown likes the idea of a uniform on him.... NFL Update (@MySportsUpdate) Brown put up huge numbers in 2018 and he could potentially put up even bigger numbers in 2019 playing in an offense designed by 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan. With throwing him the ball, there's no reason to think that Brown couldn't approach or surpa s his biggest seasons with the Steelers. The upside for Pittsburgh in this trade is that it would get Brown out of the AFC and send him acro s the country.2. With storied career nearing its end, the Cardinals are going to be in dire need of a new No. 1 receiver soon, which would make Brown a perfect option in Arizona. Although Fitzgerald put up impre sive numbers in 2018, Josh Rosen didn't really have anyone else to throw the ball to. To put Fitzgerald's production in perspective: He caught six touchdown pa ses in 2018 while the rest of the team combined for just nine. Add Brown to the mix as a long-term pairing with Christian Kirk, and the offense will be well-positioned to handle the eventual lo s of Fitzgerald. Like the 49ers, the Cardinals also have a player who's trying to recruit Brown and that player is Patrick Peterson. Yo ...Hit my line. Patrick Peterson /P2 (@P2) Kittle and Peterson aren't just rivals on the field, it looks like they're now also rivals on the recruiting circuit for Brown's services.3. Jon Gruden has basically spent the past 12 months collecting first-round picks and this might be the perfect spot to use one. With three first-rounders in the 2019 draft, Gruden could call up the Steelers and offer one for Brown. The Raiders are also in serious need of a wide receiver to the in October. It would almost be fitting if the Raiders used the first-rounder acquired in the Cooper deal to trade for Brown.4. One of ' biggest problems in Green Bay is that his receivers generally have some serious i sues getting open. If the Packers were to trade for Brown, that would likely solve a lot of those problems. With Brown and on the team, Rodgers would have no excuse to have a bad season in 2019. The thing that makes the Packers an intriguing option is that they actually have two first-round picks this year, which means they could offer one to the Steelers in exchange for Joe Haeg Jersey Brown. 5. Brown landing in Miami would actually make a lot of sense. For one, he already lives there so he probably wouldn't have any i sue with a trade sending him to South Beach. Also, he would probably like the fact that he would instantly become the best receiver on the Dolphins' roster. Brown finished the 2018 season with 1,297 receiving yards, which was more than the Dolphins' top two receivers combined ( led the team with 575 yards, followed by , who ended the season with 553 yards). Of course, the Dolphins don't really have a quarterback right now, so that could potentially throw a wrench in things. It's also po sible the Dolphins wouldn't want to put their first-year coach through all the drama that a player like Brown could potentially bring. New coach Brian Flores came is coming from New England and it's very po sible Brown wouldn't be on board with the South Beach version of the "Patriot Way."6. The Redskins seem to love drama so Antonio Brown would be a perfect fit in Washington. Not to mention, they could also use a star receiver. In 2018, no receiver on the Redskins roster even topped 560 yards. Also, Brown caught 15 touchdown pa ses this season, which was just one le s than the Redskins caught as a team. The biggest i sue with the Redskins is probably the fact that they don't know who their quarterback is going to be next season.7. The Jets are for this offseason, so at this point, they should just go all-in and turn Cameron Sutton Jersey into the Steelers of the AFC East by adding Brown. According , the Jets are going to have nearly $100 million in free cap space in 2019, which means they could easily afford to pay Brown. The Jets already have Robbie Anderson, which means would have several serious weapons going into 2019 if his team was to make a deal with the Steelers for Brown. 8. ColtsWith more salary cap space than any other team this offseason, the Colts have the cap room to take on Antonio Brown's contract, which makes them a perfect financial fit. Brown would also likely thrive in Frank Reich's offense with Andrew Luck throwing him pa ses. Despite Brown appearing to be a natural fit in Indy, the Colts aren't ranked higher on this list because general manager Chris Ballard has quietly hinted all offseason that he's not going to add anyone who and if we know one thing about Brown, it's that he brings drama everywhere he goes.Four teams that won't be landing Antonio BrownPatriotsBrownsBengalsRavensAlthough the Steelers are open for busine s when it comes to trading Brown, they almost certainly won't be taking phone calls from these four teams. According to La Canfora, the Steelers or any team in the AFC North. Obviously, this thinking makes a lot of sense. If you're the Steelers, the last thing you want to do is make the best team in your conference (the Patriots) even better. As for the rest of the AFC North, the Steelers would be crazy to send Brown to any of these three teams, because that would mean that they would have to face him twice a year. The last thing the Steelers need is to lose a future division title because they lost two games to the Ravens after Brown torched them in both games.With these four teams eliminated, that means there are 27 other teams that could end up calling the Steelers about a po sible Brown trade.
