    I'd start asking around and see what teams (in the NFC) would give up for him.

    I'd call his agent and start working on getting a deal done.

    Remember, the trade part is easy.....any prospective trade partners would still have to deal with his ego/contract/money demands.

    That's already been done. CJ is just too dumb to realize that all he needs to do is come to camp.

    If he truly wants to be more than just the highest paid RB in the league, then it's time to get him out of here.

    Good thing we have Blount to take over.

    If Johnson holds out into the regular season and the Titans lose a few games with a bad rushing attack... who cares? This team isn't making the playoffs in 2011. Jake Locker won't get destroyed in the backfield because Hasselbeck will take those hits.

    It doesn't matter if Johnson misses time. What matters is getting him to cave on his ridiculous demands and settle for a reasonable contract. Heck, he can miss the whole season without it being a crisis. Whatever destroys his leverage.

    The Raiders and Redskins some to mind. I'm sure someone would give him a huge contract.
