a first right of refusal (not a right of first refusal, as some of you may mistakenly call it) pretty much ends discussion by another team. If you know your bid will be second best, there is nothing to be gained unless your a division opponent to making a bid. Given that our division is kinda playing on the edge with cap, I seriously doubt that they would risk devastating their franchise by playing chicken with the Saints. Even then, the FROR would keep them blocked, then signal to the rest of the team that the franchise can be blackmailed.
