Bighill came back later in the off-season, I think.
A lot of teams' cap space was already used up.
I think that's re-writing history a bit.
We made him the highest offer (highest paid in the league at that point) - and he told TO it would cost 10 or 15 more to convince him to go there, at which point they bailed.
He's definitely signed for less since that point though.
