ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler: Saints Head Coach opening is a coveted job among people I’ve spoken to; Mike McCarthy could have interest

Not trying to “spin” anything. Just saying that having a ton of cap space is an indication that your team is horrible and you’re going to have to spend a ton on free agents, which has been a trap for many teams in that position that keep remaining in that cycle.

The teams with moderate space offer the most ideal roster opportunities.

If you have $131m in space, your cupboard is BARE and you will have to overspend a lot if you have dreams of using a ton of it. That’s fact, not opinion.

In addition, when agents know that a team has a ton of cap space they try to squeeze those teams for every penny which means they end up over paying and giving bad contracts. Obviously you want to have cap space, but cap space is better spent on signing the good young players you drafted to second contracts, not trying to build a roster with big signings. The other use is to fill holes so you don't have to reach for certain positions in the draft to fill needs.
