Someone Tell Sean Taylor to Hire An Agent

NFLNetwork · 07-02-2004, 11:11 PM

Has he forgotten? Is he going to negotiate himself...LOL....i knew this would drag out when he said, "I'm not in a rush, I got all the time in the world". Gggggrrrr....don't push it sean.

JWsleep · 07-03-2004, 04:14 AM

Don't worry, I'll tell him. Hey, Sean, get an agent! (If only this would help!

)

Well, they say that things don't really get going until after July 4th. It's July 3rd, so we've still got a couple of days before the real worry sets in.

MTK · 07-03-2004, 10:27 AM

We're still trying to work out a deal, don't worry I'll get him in camp on time!

LOL

It would be nice if agents werent involvlved. There sure would be less holdouts.
Really why does he need one playing in Washington? You know he is not going to get short changed.

SKINSnCANES · 07-03-2004, 11:34 AM

you cant really get short changed on a rookie contract. They basically just have to agree on years, which shoudl be easy because of all the rules about being a restricted player and what not. And then just give him like ten percent more than Newman got last year.

Gmanc711 · 07-03-2004, 12:37 PM

I'm not worried yet. If it gets to be the middle of the month, and were still no where at all, then I'll really start to be worried. Was there any word on why he even fired Rosenhaus in the first place?

saden1 · 07-03-2004, 01:42 PM

You don't need an agent. Negotiant a fair contract and have a $500 p/h lawyer take a close look at it.

BrudLee · 07-03-2004, 02:47 PM

Rookie contracts are easier to structure than later ones. Take last year's number 5, add 10%, viola!

Will you tell Lavar or shall I?

That Guy · 07-03-2004, 08:58 PM

maybe you should talk to his agent about that davy

Skins fan 44 · 07-04-2004, 12:08 AM

Davy-- you can tell Lavar that. But really think about why does one really need an agent. Tell them what you want and you can always bargin with them instead of adding a middle man. But thats just me. I would be happy making the a million or so a year. BTW when and how did agents get involved anyway.

JWsleep · 07-04-2004, 01:08 AM

The Post says Taylor is close to getting an agent, and that it may be Rosenhaus (sp?) again. What is up with that? What an odd situation...

Still, just get somebody and get signed.

PS I'll negotiate for ya if you want, Sean. I'll only charge 2%, and I promise to actually read the contract before we sign, unlike some agents we know! I may not get the best deal, but you'll get to keep so much more of your money with me as your agent that it's worth it. Oh, and I have a good relationship with Danny Snyder. We've never disagreed and we've never argued (we've never met, but you can't have everything).

skinsfanthru&thru · 07-04-2004, 01:14 AM

if he did resign with Rosenhaus, I know the situation would further confuse the heck out of me. This is a pretty weird situation but hopefully it'll all work out in the end. Is Mato on good terms with the team? I vaguelly remember him being on a short list a while back of agents the redskins were hoping Taylor would sign with.

Big C · 07-04-2004, 01:29 AM

He has signed an agent, sez the WP, another thread has been started

skinsfanthru&thru · 07-04-2004, 02:27 AM

the news wire report only said he was close to signing with an agent and we should know who in the next couple days.
