Take severance or reapply?

My team recently let our team go and asked them to reapply to a limited number of positions. I do not really like the role, think the work life balance will be awful considering the situation, and there is no career development in the role (and I would be frozen from moving internally for a while). I was offered a decent amount of severance and would normally just not bother to reapply to the role. However, I am paid well, have benefits, and am cognizant that the economy is very bad right now. I also heard its easier to find a job when you have one. Is it a terrible idea to walk out?
