Titans Ink Griffin to Five-Year Deal
The Titans and safety Michael Griffin reached agreement on a five-year deal for $35 million, with $15 million of that guaranteed. Griffin probably isn't as good as the phrase "multiple Pro Bowler" would lead you to believe, but as a solid safety, he probably would have received this amount on the free market after the season. The Titans had franchised him earlier in the offseason. Tom Gower's take on the proceedings can be found here.

Minor weaknesses dot these teams. Except for Arizona, which needs to bring in more help to really run Bruce Arians' offense.

Re: Titans Ink Griffin to Five-Year Deal
Assuming the $7m/year average is reasonably real, this seems like overpayment to me. Not to a horrific extent, but paying a little too much for players who are only pretty good is a slow but sure route to cap hell.

Unless you're operating under the assumption that the upcoming TV deal will inflate the salary cap.
Re: Titans Ink Griffin to Five-Year Deal
I guess the question is how much by.
Re: Titans Ink Griffin to Five-Year Deal
I hope that this deal will encourage Dashon Goldson to sign a similar deal, he's holding out for $8 million per year.
Re: Titans Ink Griffin to Five-Year Deal
Came here expecting Peter Griffin. Post does not deliver.
Re: Titans Ink Griffin to Five-Year Deal
And I came here thinking it was Cedric Griffin.
But my biggest question is why this contract gets FO attention and not others?
