9.5 - 12 million it looks like
Beasley led the NFL in sacks in 2016 with 15.5, but saw his production fall off mightily in the two years that followed, totaling 10 sacks combined. He had a resurgent 2019 season in which he totaled eight sacks.
While there has been past concerns about Beasley’s effort and consistency, there is no arguing he has a ton of upside, and he comes at a relatively affordable price.
Last season, he finished 15th in Pass Rush Win Rate, which was just one spot behind Yannick Ngakoue, according to ESPN. It’s also important to note both players faced a similar double team rate.
It’ll be interesting to see how this helps Harold Landry, the team’s sack leader from last season. Landry didn’t have much help to take pressure off of him in 2019, and really the same can be said for Beasley in Atlanta. This duo has a real chance to make some noise in 2020.

ALSO, in spite of what they say below, I think it's wishful thinking. "We can afford Clowney if A, B, C, D, E, and F happen...in that order.

This means that the Titans have enough money to sign Jadeveon Clowney, but depending on how much that deal goes through for (he could make up to $20 million next season), there won’t be room for much else, especially when you consider the Titans’ draft pool cap will be $5.8 million.

The two week old signing of Beasley plus them having just spent 10.5 on Henry's franchise tag makes me wonder if they still have the cap space for Clowney?
