2016 Restricted Free Agent Tender Values
Several players have already begun getting tendered by their respective teams, and now the tender values have been released according to Field Yates of ESPN.
2016 restricted free agent tender values:
1st round: $3.635M
2nd round: $2.553M
Original round: $1.671M— Field Yates (@FieldYates) March 3, 2016
Yesterday, Tony Jefferson the safety of the Arizona Cardinals was hit with the original round tender, and today Larry Donnell the tight end of the Giants was hit with an original round tender. If another team signs them to a deal their team will be allowed to match the deal, if they cannot match the deal then the team gets nothing in return for them, because both the players were undrafted. If the players were drafted then the team would get a draft pick (the round the player was drafted) in return.
