    As it turns out, the Titans drew their line in the proverbial sand, and didn't deviate from it, which played a large role in Albert Haynesworth signing his record deal with Washington early in free agency. Tennessee's final offer to Haynesworth, according to a league source, amounted to a four-year package worth $34 million total, with about $20 million in guarantees, The City Paper learned. According to a league source with knowledge of the situation, the Titans made that offer in late January and never seriously moved far off it, even as the deadline for free agency approached.

    Can't blame them fro trying. One thing's for sure. The Titans will be getting a 3rd round compensatory pick next year.

    i would have liked to have seen them up it at least a little once he hit free agency, we probs could have got him for a bit cheaper than washingtons total anyway

    The redskins deal is not $66M more, it is on paper, but if you think that haynesworth is going to see that full $100M then you are fooling yourself.

    The Haynesworth deal is 4 years 45 mil pretty much.
