Cap keeps rising and there are more teams with cap space than there are good players available.
We'd be banking on a surplus of $$$ in the system and teams that aren't able to convince good players to take it from them.
So you trade Smith to them and they know they're overpaying by 20% for the player based on his likely market value, but they can't get a player that's at/near pro bowl quality to sign with them for that money anyway.
I don't think he's a must-have guy, but he's probably the best OG that may be available this offseason. There's value in that.
