Here is a list of five strong NFC contenders the Los Angeles Rams should be concerned about possibly landing Antonio Brown in a trade from the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Since the Los Angeles Rams have a history of pulling off surprise trades out of nowhere, there has been some speculation over the possibility of acquiring Antonio Brown from the Pittsburgh Steelers, although this would mean one of their current receivers would be the odd-man out.

With this in mind, it’s safe to assume the Rams are most likely out of the Brown sweepstakes, but there is still the biggest question over which team will be fortunate enough to bring the speedster on board after the Steelers recently indicated their intention to send him to a NFC team.

Rightfully so, it’s easy to understand Pittsburgh’s mindset in wanting to Brown to end up on a team outside the AFC since the last thing they want to deal with is having to face the wideout come playoff time, and have him ruin their chances of earning a trip to the Super Bowl.

At least for the Steelers, there are plenty of NFC contenders that would love the opportunity to give Brown a chance to increase their odds of making a run at the Super Bowl. And whether the Rams want to hear it or not, some of those teams could cause problems for the NFC champions not just during the regular season, but the playoffs as well.
