Buy Kelby's book on Lightroom and study your options. There should be no need to produce a TIFF of each image, as LR will always keep your original RAW file untouched. You only designate either TIFF or jpeg as a file when exporting a image, along with size, # of pixels, etc. The book explains all the choices clearly, and why to make each of them.
Just to be sure I understand, when you say "as LR will always keep your original RAW file untouched" you really mean the DNG, correct? As far as I know, the original RAW files are deleted when I return the SD card to my camera and format it. Is it possible for Lightroom to "spit out" the DNG copies that were imported as the original RAW? That would be good to know just in case. Thanks, Bob
