Any time you have an inefficient use of your cap space you are putting your team in a hole.
Great if the cap is 100M, if we are overpaying a couple guys by 2-3 million each we are starting at 95M not 100M.
Yeah, fact of the matter remains that you can look at an increasing cap essentially as inflation.

While the Cap will go up, in that time the contractual cost of players, all players, will increase accordingly.

The $4M guy in 2023 will be a $5M in 2025/26. The cap goes up, so do the salary demands. Its not like the cap goes up and the new players get paid the same.
