False. It actually wasn't a matter of expense. The Bengals wanted him to sign a 2 year deal, he wanted a 1 year deal so he could rebuild his FA value. Harrison was willing to sign a 2 year deal so the Bengals signed him, and instead Arizona offered Dansby a 1 year deal.
Dansby signed a 1yr/$2.25m deal with Arizona.
Harrison signed a 2yr/$4.45m deal with Cincinnati.
Wasn't money, was length of contract, which is goofy because Arizona got 1 year of Dansby at 2nd-team All-Pro level, Bengals ended up getting 1 year of Harrison at turd level before having to cut him anyway.
