Chevy showed the fans he was all in this year by acquiring Stafford, Myers, Tlusty, and Stempniak.
I agree it is a function of the cap however

Pretty much this. The Jets, and this isn't my opinion, are widely considered to be one of the deepest teams in the league strictly speaking in terms of youth coming up and drafted talent. Whether or not that turns out to be the case is another thing of course. But the Jets believe in building through the draft and signing a 2nd line player to 5 years at a highish cap hit wasn't just doesn't make sense when you have a lot of younger cheaper talent coming up. Would Chevy have wanted Frolik? Of course. But at 5 years I don't blame him for passing.
