I'll chime in and say a couple of things:
1) I don't see prices coming down next year. Why would they if they haven't from last year. LT at over $5k is basically the standard at this point. So if you are hoping next year would be different, I am not sure why that would be the case. Whoever has LT, for example is just going to put him back in the RFA pool next year as you can't sign someone for that much for more than 1 year. And then the cycle starts again. Take a look at the WR numbers. I think they got worse, not better. (I'd make commentary on some of them, but that would be rude until they have sold.)

2) I'm for eliminating the 1st round tenders or for doing what Matt said (I actually like the idea of paying a price to sign a RFA, just like the NFL team that signs one has to offer a pick to the team.) The comp picks are killing the draft. If this keeps up, around pick 2.05/2.06 you are looking at third round talent. That means pick 3.01 is getting close to 4th round talent. Not really fair at all.
