This isn't like trying to find a way to go from $2 million to $15 million for Bolton. A substantial raise for Butker only adds $3 million to the cap sheet. That should be eminently doable.

Exactly. You only need $2M per year to pay Butker the same as the current “best kicker ever” salary. $2M is chump change. Simply avoid dumb salaries like MVS above $10M per year and you easily afford top dollar for Butker’s new deal.
