Not about sense. It's about money.

You'd always like to keep all your good players. But you can't always afford to.

MJ wasn't taking a sweetheart deal to stay and turned down what they offered Carlos.
The only reason he is here is because he stunk it up in Tampa and came cheap (along with residual money from the Bucs). 

Same reason we won't draft a center as high as we should.
You can't have 3 guys coming up on big contracts on the OL at once. You essentially admit in drafting them that you don't plan on re-signing one. 

Less tricky there since you can play two OTs, but similar thoughts.
