I think they overestimated their cap against that of the rest of the league and when it became clear they were not in the financially dominant position they thought they were they got caught in no man's land. 

If so, that is extremely dense of them. I explained my thoughts of the "salary cap crunch" in advance and it has played out a lot like I thought it would and I am no insider. Really sad to be honest. If all the lowball offer stuff is true and what you are saying is true, they must have thought most all teams had limited liquidity so players like Zeitler were going to get 3-4M dollar offers and have to take them. I find that completely incompetent if that is the case.
