Chris Johnson still not close to a new deal

The Titans and RB Chris Johnson are reportedly still miles apart in contract negotiations.  According to Yahoo’s Jason Cole, CJ2K is looking for about $12 million per year with $30 million in guarantees.  The team is offering about $8 million per season with $20 million guaranteed.  That $10 million in guaranteed money figures to be the biggest hurdle to clear.  The two sides are scheduled to meet again today, although we wouldn’t expect a deal to get done just yet.  The end of this week seems like a reasonable expectation.  If it’s not done by then, we’ll be bumping Johnson down our rankings again.
