All water under the bridge now. If they're lucky they might snag Alaric Jackson. And if they do I doubt they sign him to a two year contract.

Bit being committed to Brown is not the same thing as being cheap. If you offered $10 and they wanted $12, being cheap would be letting them walk and buying someone for $8.
The had a premium they didn't want to pay and they didn't. Then they turned around and gave Taylor a wad of cash. That's not the same thing as "cheap".
