This.

It's all in the structure. The Hunts DONT like handing out huge signing bonus to sign another team's free agents to offset the cap hit. That strategy eventually gets you - and Denver will be up against the cap this off season, BUT the cap usually rises every year which can alleviate some of the hit.
