In 2007, a second-round tender offer was added. The four tender amounts for 2008 are as follows: [1]
| Tender amount | Compensation required | | $2.562 million | First- and third-round | | $2.017 million | First-round | | $1.417 million | Second-round | | $927,000 | Determined by RFA's original draft status (see below) | Each player that signs a tender receives the one-year salary that corresponds to the tender level. Teams which choose not to match an offer on a player with a low tender receive a draft pick corresponding to the round in which the player was originally drafted (except that the highest pick that can be surrendered for such a tender is a second-round pick). For example, a player who was originally drafted in the sixth round of the NFL Draft would force the team signing him to give his former team a sixth-round pick in the upcoming draft as compensation for his service. No compensation is required for an undrafted player on the lowest tender amount, so teams with valued undrafted RFAs are taking a notable risk by offering such tenders.
