24 yrs old, 6'5 220 productive when healthy**, because he went undrafted, he won't even cost a draft pick...I say 3 yrs at 3-3.5 per yr is worth the risk.

I mean, this tender just basically makes it so some other team can do the leg work of negotiating a deal, revealing the guy's market value, and SD can decide whether or not to go from there.
I'm not reading too much into what this says.

Perhaps, but by offering a second round tender they're basically in the same situation with some insurance if he moves on. Given how cheap the tender is, it seems like a strange decision to almost force a market upon Alexander rather than just wait until next year when he isn't a RFA.

Well... possibly for the same reason San Diego doesn't just want to pay him a nominal amount to play on a second round tender. The Chargers essentially turned down the chance to have a very cheap receiver on their roster... guaranteed. Instead they're letting him go and find out his market a year before they have to. He's an unrestricted free agent next year. There was no reason to offer the original round tender to a former UDFA. So either they just made one of the weirdest and dumbest mistakes in recent NFL history, or his knee's are a mess.
