The Facts:
The Falcons plan to tender restricted free agent quarterback Matt Schaub a one-year qualifying offer of more than $2 million Tuesday, a person with knowledge of the situation said Monday.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Included in that tender is the requirement that if another team signs the highly regarded backup it must compensate the Falcons with first- and third-round draft picks. The course of action is hardly a surprise. By tendering Schaub the highest possible offer with the attachment of hefty compensation, the Falcons are trying to discourage interest or at least get something in return if a team is willing to part with a hefty ransom to acquire the three-year veteran.
