Not more than 11M necessarily, just more than they offered. We don't know what they offered, but I think they could have gotten a deal done for 10.5 earlier in the process, when a transition tag could have been strategically used or at least threatened. It also ties in with my feelings about trading for a QB whose cap hit is 13M this year. If given the option of Foles, Maclin, and 2M cap space that could have been offered to McCourty, or Bradford straight up... I'd probably be looking for the first.
