True, sort of.

We can tender him a 2nd rounder at 2 million, but if no one bites he costs us 2 million.

Our best bet is a ROFR tender at about 1.5 million, which means we can just match any offer he gets. If its too steep, we let him walk, but we don't get squat.

Loomis would not do ROFR.
So we get squadoosh when he leaves. Which he will.
Zero sum.
