SUMMARY: According to Titans GM Floyd Reese, Tennessee will have about $10 million in free agency to spend this offseason. Any new deals for QB Steve McNair and DE Kyle Vanden Bosch would be a part of that budget. "It could be a little more or a little less, depending on how things work out, but for free agency, we should have about $10 million to spend on improving the club. That includes McNair and Vanden Bosch and whoever else we pursue in free agency," Reese said. Reese has already had conversations with McNair's agent Bus Cook and the two are expected to talk this week at the Senior Bowl. Contact has been made with KVB's agent and discussions should heat up within the next two weeks.

$11 million, eh Aussie Boy. Putting on my Ugg boots and mini skirt and waving all friendly at Gunny.:greedy:
 
Couldn't really be sure from the article, but this does or does not include the deals to be made for KVB and Mcnair. Meaning after signing these two guys we have 10 mill or much less than 10 mill? I mean if McNair and KVB not included that number can go way down and we don't have much to spend on anyone else.

I think they'll have 7.5 million left. Don't forget to deduct Lamont's $2.5 million bonus he'll be getting soon!:p
 
Read the title - Titans to Have $10 Million for FREE AGENCY. That does not involve contracted players outside of McNairs huge cap number. Whether or not Lamont gets his bonus it doesnt affect that because it will have been taken into account.
 
Huh? We have $10 million now and McNair and KVB will have to come out of that? If that's true, we don't have squat. The wording is very confusing.
 
One would think that restructuring McNair's deal would add to that number, not take away from it. If that is true, then signing KVB will probably use whatever we save on McNair and maybe a little more.

Thats how I read it.

Thats not good news at this point considering we need to find a SS and MLB. I don't think Reese is saying that we could not make more room with roster moves such as cutting Sirmon and Olsen. Either way we are not going to have a boat load of $$ for FAs after we sign KVB.
 
If they're saying we will have $10 million even after salaries for Hopkins, Olsen, Hartwig and Sirmon are included, then we are still in good shape if Reese decides to cut any or all of those. I don't see how we could be looking at $10 million, though, if those guys salaries and bonuses are included.
 
According to the article, the $10 mil is what Reese expects to have to sign McNair, KVB and any FA. I don't know how Reese arrived at that number since negotiations don't appear close for McNair or KVB right now.
