Questions? Seriously. If you don’t get this ask. Don’t make assumptions.
Is that the reason, i remember correctly there are teams every year that have huge cap to throw around. I can say with 100% certainly that in years past had zero effect because of where we put the grids this year. I would say it would be better to look at which teams had large cap and how they came to acquiring it rather then making assumptions that don't hold true for all the previous years that had similar problems and a much higher GRID

With the quick acceleration of players getting great Ov while still under contract (which will run out) and veterans taking a cap hit re-signing at a more reasonable hit... plus dumping those that would have been grossly overpaid for being too low of the depth charts would have a better assumption

It would be a mistake to make quick reflex changes to a system (changing the GRID's) when players that where under the old grids contracts have yet to come up and re-sign) right now we are in a system that has players signed under the old and new, after this season only players that were originally signed for 3 years will be the only players still not signed under the new GRID's (not all players were signed to 3 years so the number will be lower then 1/3)

I think it would be better to make an evaluation about the grids after the RFA process next year otherwise you really are jumping the gun without playing out a full contract to understand where it really is
