1. Everyone has massive cap space by 2017. We would be trying to compete on the same playing field as a number of much more glamorous destinations that could also be more financially rewarding, due to endorsements and/or no state taxes.
2. You risk having three or four years of playoff futility, which renders your cap space somewhat impotent.
I don't think we would have had to gut the roster in 2016. Leaving Ross unsigned and being creative with moving the other less-important contracts would have gotten us there, at least for one major deal. Not to mention that signing Carroll (a role player) was part of the reason we would be tight in 2016 anyway.
