I wouldn't meet the demands. Missing one or two preseason games will give them a slower start to the season because they won't have their playbooks down as well, but its more than worth the savings usually. I never go above offer 1 with rookies and I've only had two holdouts miss more than one preseason game and both were in camp for preseason week 3.
