Do they make "TurboAgent" software? Beats paying 3% for a job a monkey could do. Dorsey, pay me 1% and I'll slot you between what the 4th rounder and the 6th rounder makes. See, good business decision - you're already 2% ahead! If this is how Segal “negotiates”, Dorsey should have just bought some software to develop a contract in lieu of an actual human agent.

It would change the game as we know it (since there wouldn't be any players ever signed). If I was the player I would fire this guy and get Master P to be my agent. At least he got Ricky Williams a contract! What if every agent took this approach? It would change the game as we know it (since there wouldn’t be any players ever signed).

A set pay/slot system will avoid this. These kids are missing valuable practice time, and teams are at the mercy of the agents. Set up a NBA style system and all these kids will be on camp on time. Heck, the kids can save money by not needing to hire an agent, the pay scale will already be in place. Another reason why the league needs to change the pay system in the next negotiations.

I know the scenario is highly unlikely, but it would be entertaining to see what happened to say the least. I wonder what would happen if Segal had two clients that were drafted back to back.

Listen to what Jared Allen had to say about him and how he promised to reward him for what he deserved and then lie to him and trade him away. I hope you get what you want Glenn when your ready to sign, and remember King Carl has a big ego when it comes to big contracts.
