As if the NFL doesn't have a salary cap? If it were even NBA level, where you could go over your cap and pay a luxury tax, then I'd understand. The NFL literally says " this is the maximum that you can spend on an entire team" and the Rams have to consider that when signing players
The wealth of the owner directly relates to how much of a bonus a player gets and how much guaranteed money.
For example if they give AD a huge signing bonus, technically that's divided up across the length of the contract in terms of the cap hit, but the owner has to fork over a huge sum regardless. So it's cash flow.
Stan also has to do with how much coaches get because that's not under the cap.
Wealthier owners do have a few advantages.
