sabbath1981 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 He represents 3 of our biggest players: Portis, Moss, and Taylor. Taylor was ready to hold out before he got in trouble. Drew can pull another TO argument and say that Moss "out-played his contract." Portis already has a huge contract but what if the collective bargining agreement raises the value of top backs. Just food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreitmaster Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I wouldnt worry too much. He certainly put TO in a good position, not. I doubt these players would risk that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIDETHEWALRUS Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Yeah, that Drew Rosenhaus sure knows how to manage his players. Meanwhile... Satan is sitting on his couch saying to himself, "***** thats his own fault. That doesn't void our contract." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD Riggo Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Rosenhaus is currently the laughingstock of professional sports. No doubt that he will continue to fervently represent the players who are still with him (they should have run for the exits quickly when they saw that T.O. fiasco), but the biggest egomaniac of all sports agents knows he needs to tread a little softer now. He's being watched VERY closely, by both owners AND clients! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pourdanesh Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 he's got a pretty good stronghold on his U circle ... hopefully players will back off, but to my knowledge he hasn't caused much trouble among our guys (barring the near-Taylor stuff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostic Hog Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I don't particularly believe that our players represented by Rosenhaus will present any issues, near term. After the TO and Javon Walker situations both played out in favor of the teams, I believe the players are very reluctant to listen to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKINZ33 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 That would be a headache if drew tried to pull that ---- with the skins. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabbath1981 Posted January 19, 2006 Author Share Posted January 19, 2006 I'm thinking more of say 3-5 years down the road. The Taylor situation will be interesting. He'll probably want a Lavar payday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinfan133 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 dont even bring that kind of talk in here; we dont want to give rosencheeks any ideas:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinker Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Drew got caught up in his own hype. Before this year, I think he was a despised by other agents but respected by management. He did have a good reputation for getting deals done and his players into camp. Honestly I think that the TO thing was not all of his doing. TO would have sc*wed up the iggles whoever his agent was. Drew just made an as* of himself along the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xameil Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Drew, and Dan have a good working relationship. I doubt that stuff will happen. From what I've read, they both like working with each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paavo Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I predict all three holding out for bigger contracts next season, a stalemate that comes to an end when LaVar steals Sean's ATVs and frames Drew, resulting in a bloody ending for the "super agent", an incident which the Skins succeed in wiping under the rug, partly because the whole nation despises The Devil's Advocate. That's just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefPowhatan17 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 No, Drew will convince Taylor to holdout at somepoint, but Taylor needs to stay up here in the DC area and stay away from the thugs in Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryceb07 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 True that Chief! Taylor wont hold out this comin up season, the next season . But he will earn his money first, that's for sure! And no one takes Drew too seriously, NO ONE wants to end up like T.O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I don't think Rosenhaus is done by any stretch. His goal has never been about a particular player's contract. His goal has been changing the way the league does business. He wants guaranteed contracts and guaranteed money. If he finds another player willing to be his patsy, he will take on another team...though probably in a different way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseGoForTheWin Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Portis and Moss are being paid a boatload already, and I believe that ST will be compensated at some point during the next season. He and Cooley both deserve raises, but the cap is always tight so they'll have to wait another year or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
