I think the players know exactly what they're getting into when they pick their agents. For example, Robert Gallery told his agents to make sure that he had a deal in place before the start of training camp. Further, our own Sean Taylor picked agents who he knew would get him into camp on time (he knew the value that being around for training camp would have).

The Postons represent everything negative about the agent stereotype. They have consistently made their clients holdout for extended periods of time. Some of the players they represent that have been slapped with the franchise tag have been instructed by the Postons to skip camp. They represent football as a financial decision, not a sport, not a passion. They are agents who teach players about money rather than loyalty and teamwork.

Bottomline: I guess, to a certain extent, you can tell what kind of player someone is by the agent they pick.
