you don't mention that only 11 players are on the field at a time, so maxing those 11 (or 22) is more important than value at RB #4,

I explained a basic strategy in a couple of sentences. There were lots of lesser points omitted

...and leaving 25mill unspent means you start at 0.75 instead of 1.00.

I said this: "The best strategy for a team is to spend the payroll limit, but to spend it wisely...on players who might be worth more than their market value."
I think that covers your point but in a different way.
Incidentally, I think this "bargain strategy" applies to the draft as well. One study I saw concluded that the best values in the draft happen between picks 25 to 75. I didn't look at their data but I can understand logically why their conclusion might be valid.
