To update to the 98.72.16 OTA, you have to go back to stock 98.72.8

You have to do it from your stock ROM as opposed to using a ROM slot ..... boot into safestrap.... activate stock slot....wipe cache and dalvik cache.... reboot.... then try the OTA again....

Insert "uninstall safestrap" after the last reboot above. Even then it may fail and you'll need to use one of Matt's utilities.

When I updated, I tried everything I could to not fastboot back to stock (I know I didn't mess with the stock side), but in the end I ended up doing it, it seems that is always the failsafe way...

You can't use the 98.72.8 roms on 98.72.16. You'll need to look at this for Matts compatibility tool.
