Yes it does mean that. Vegas will NOT have a significant impact on next year's cap. Let's go through it again...
Start with the average team's HRR (roughly $130 M)
In order for Vegas to cause the cap to go up $ONE million, they would need to have HRR revenues that are $62M higher than the league average, or nearly $200M.
That is not happening.
I will say it again. For one team to singlehandly move the cap by $1M. they need to increase their HRR by $62M (or about %50% of the league average revenue).
I know that Friedman and others have been reporting that the cap might go up by $5M but if so, it isn't because of Vegas (unless of course their HRR is over $400M, which it most certainly isn't).
