season &amp; he walked out for a few days over it.
The Titans figured he wanted a lot more than they 
were willing to give so they are letting him leave.

If he really wanted to stay, he could have taken 
Tennessee&#039;s offer. But he wants to get paid as 
much as possible so there ya go...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not every Titans fan is a Finnegan fan. 

He was voted to be a leader on the team yet we saw very little leadership on the field. But we DID see some immature actions off the field. 

He was offered a contract and turned it down. His choice. I&#039;m glad the Titans held their ground in this matter. 

I just wish the Titans had gone a different route with regards to Griffin.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Its pretty simple. The Titans do not think he is worth franchise tag money for a corner. I don&#039;t either. He also made it known that he was not signing for anything less. If a guy won&#039;t accept anything less than a certain amount and you aren&#039;t going to pay him that much money then there is no deal. 

I don&#039;t think he will get what he wants in free agency. Rogers was a similar type of talent last year and had to accept a one year deal with San Francisco.  He played well and may be able to turn that into a long term deal this year.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A couple of thoughts. First, Cortland Finnegan picked a fight with Andre Johnson and lost. Second, he showed up for camp last summer then pulled a CJ by leaving and holding out.

Finnegan is an average cornerback at best who is looking for too much money. If I were an owner in need of a cornerback, I would rather take my chances on Brandon Carr.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[so he got beat by the #1 receiver in the league, and you all are dogging him like he&#039;s horrible.... I live in Nashville, I&#039;ve seen this guy&#039;s intensity, and heart for the game.  I have seen him get involved in the community here.  I wish more NFL Players were like him.

He&#039;s a fan favorite here.  As I Buccaneers Fan, I pray that we see him go there.  Bucs have the money, he wants 10 mil a year... PAY HIM.... C&#039;mon Tampa!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bookmark this page now to mark my words, because Finnegan will NOT be getting $10 million per year from any team, even if Jerry Jones is involved.

I can see him getting in the neighborhood between $7-8 per year.

If I&#039;m wrong, I will wear a new wig that looks worse than the one that I already wear.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That&#039;s because the Titans will give you an offer and then you&#039;ll be just as offended that gave you such a &quot;low-ball&quot;. Just accept that the Titans thought they were OK at corner, and there&#039;s another team that can afford that $10M/year price tag who will need your services more. If it&#039;s business, why take it personally???]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From pft.com 2/20/12:

Before last season, the Titans offered cornerback Cortland Finnegan a contract worth roughly $28 million over four years. Finnegan’s camp wanted a deal greater than Johnathan Joseph’s five-year, $48.75 million deal.

The Titans DID offer him a contract but he rejected a it and made it clear that they were VERY far apart on what he is worth.

The Titans didn&#039;t want you because you have grossly over valued yourself Cortland...that&#039;s why]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a Titans fan it will suck to see him go, but I can understand why they wouldnt want him back. He isnt worth $10 mil a season hes just more of a physical presence than a good skilled player. I will say that he is one of the best players when it comes to the community and charities you cant take that away from the guy, some athletes who make millions dont give anything back. As for the Andre Johnson fight, look at the size difference the man stood up to him what more can you ask]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two Words - Bud Adams.   He&#039;s the sorriest excuse for an owner if i saw one.   They have one of the lowest salary cap numbers for a reason.   They&#039;ve never won a superbowl for a reason .... and it&#039;s not because they know what they&#039;re doing.   This guy has been fielding a losing team for well over 50 years ..... way before you were born.   


Good luck in your future endeavors!!!!]]></description>

Yeah, neither do I. Why don’t they want to bring him back? Pretty underrated CB if you ak me.

I&#039;m booking marking this page so I can bring it back up at the end of next year. Underrated is far from it imo. If w/e team he signs with doesn&#039;t have a pass rush, well you&#039;ll see what happens.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Simple really.

When you are an average cornerback and your opening request is 10 million a year, you put the writing firmly on the wall that you have very unrealistic expectations and will difficult to deal with.

The Titans weighed the time and effort that it would take to sign you, added in the possibility of missing out on other replacements while they fought with your outlandish expectations, and decided to pass.

Might I suggest new representation heading into free agency.  Sounds like you may need it.]]></description>

There a alot of reasons why the Titans didnt offer as you can find a compentent safety pretty cheap. They found him in the seventh round and will find another one, safeties are a dime a dozen. Cant have an safety get owned by a wideout in a fight. Good riddance and quit whining like a little girl you cheapshot artist.

 3 14 i Rate This

I&#039;m not sure where to begin with this one.  How about we start with the fact that Finnegan plays corner?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a Titans fan, I know he is trying to spin the PR game toward him.  He left camp lied about it, so why would we believe his one side right now.

Point is he made it be known through conversations with Agent to the Front office what money he is looking for and the Titans weren&#039;t going to pay that...

You don&#039;t have to make an offer when you know a player isn&#039;t going to accept it. Titans had a price for him and Finny wasn&#039;t going to accept less.

That is what you did Finny.  Just say, I wanted more money and don&#039;t try to spin it.  We will still respect you.  We love what you did with the Titans.  But you basically are pricing yourself out of town. They would be more than happy to have you back at what you were making now..but you want to almost triple your salary.]]></description>

You DO know that he plays CB right??? And hes actually one of the better man to man guys in the league. Not 10 milly good but to not offer a contract is puzzling. Oh well, come to Carolina bro!]]></description>
