I think Belichick appropriates money in relation to units, and I’d rather see the money go to Lewis. I’m not saying the relationship is completely direct but I think he only wants to spend so much at RB, and using it on a guy who isn’t playing doesn’t make sense.
I think BB will pay the minimum amount that he needs to in order to fill a role that he deems necessary. That Gillislee's role wasn't sufficiently required in the second half of this past (fairly odd) season to keep him active doesn't necessarily mean that Gillislee isn't the best he sees available for that role for the money.
