Do these guys ever think about salary cap and need to improve the team to win super bowl?

If you get a 3 year guaranteed $30 million contract is making another $3 a year really a big deal? How much money do you need? This is not just management being cheap provided they use the rest of money which I think they will this year.

I don't necessarily think it's the dollars going into someone's pocket that rank as sole importance.

Value rank at the position in the league matters for not just today but future negotiations as well.
