James Walker, of ESPN.com, reports Pittsburgh Steelers LB James Harrison will attend the team's offseason workout program Monday, March 16, despite unresolved contractual issues, agent Bill Parise said. Both sides remain in constant talks, so there was no need for Harrison to miss the session, according to Parise, as it could lead to unwarranted tension.

Sounds promising.

Maybe 18-20 mill in guaranteed money is what i'm hearing. Good to see SB make some well deserved jack.

Sounds too pricey for a guy who's going to be 31 soon.
