In regards to the Restricted FA's..... make an offer they can't refuse. Simple. Otherwise the team is just offering what they think he's worth and if another team comes along and "blows him out of the water" with a better offer then clearly the team didn't think as highly about the player as the opposing team that made a big offer.

However I thought the whole reason they are called restricted is because the current team has the option to match the new offer or not.
