Well the idea is you're preventing him from getting more legit bids.
A 1yr/1.5M offer, for example, wouldn't be enough, 2yrs/1M wouldn't either but both would be preferable IMO than 3yrs/800K. I get looking for deals but if your bargain bin hunting limit it to 1yr deals for players who could make other teams major league roster. We don't have 40 man rosters, Rule V, and our waiver rules are bare bone. We have no protection for players who are being blocked or stockpiled, these sorta bids only further it.
And PR, you call for rule changes every other day...wtf?
