An NFL agent can't make more than 3% on a players' contract and typically between 10-20% on endorsement deals.pretty sure the standard is ten pct

Anyone in the know on how much agents get when their client signs say a 80 mil contract?
It might pay to fire the agent and negotiate your own deal and save what you would pay the agent.
Positive for who? Are you a sadist? LOL
Get Jerry out of the negotiations and let Stephen handle them.

Great post.I do agree with Stephen. And even though I rarely say this.....
The owners don't necessarily care about making sure the players get everything they can. This is the most profitable league, yet no guaranteed contracts? I totally understand why the owners wouldn't want to do away with the salary cap. It keeps the league (except New England) pretty even. But, if you raise the cap significantly, or relax the rules somewhat, then you could pay the players more.
I have always thought that the cap punishes a team that drafts well. I firmly believe a team should be rewarded for drafting well. Let the team that originally drafts a player count less against the cap. If the player truly wants to leave....they can....but if a team drafts well, then they have a better opportunity of keeping their good players.
I usually am very reluctant to put down big bucks for a player's jersey. It seems it's such a transient league. You never know how long a player will be with your favorite team.
A maybe Jerry can't negotiate as well as Stephen.Not sure that is the answer. I honestly think if you put Jerry and the player in a room and locked the door....they would get a deal done. Stephen doesn't have the people skills that Jerry does.
I LOVE the posture Jerry and Stephen are taking.. but it is all peaches and cream till you start losing games...
The agents get 3% of the take. They want as much as they can get. These young players want every penny they can get. A lot of times with high level and profile players it’s a perfect match for them.
But if these young players got together and realized if we each took a little less then more talent could be signed and stay together on a team that’s getting close. They all know about or around what they will be offered. It’s usually within a few million. I have seen QB take less to keep talent. I heard Romo was willing to restructure or give up a couple mil to help sign murray. If they win a SB most players on those teams go into make more money. The stars make endorsement money. Elliot needs a agent that keeps him out of trouble and gets him side money. If a lot of the players I would have figure Elliot to get endorsement money. Feed me has products written all over it.
Don't have to be in the know. Public information.Anyone in the know on how much agents get when their client signs say a 80 mil contract?

I mean, duh. Agents have no reason to care about team success while players do. No agent ever built a legacy on how many super bowls their clients won.
I have NFL agent as clients. There takenis 8-12% plus a lower % on stuff like endorsements and such.Anyone in the know on how much agents get when their client signs say a 80 mil contract?

The problem for Zeke is that he really isn't that marketable. He's one strike away from a lifetime ban from the league. He's shown himself to be a knuckle headed douchebag in every single off-season and he obviously has serious maturity issues. His agent knows damned well that the 10%-20% that he COULD make on any endorsement deals with Zeke isn't worth anywhere near what it would be with any other player in his dugout.The agents get 3% of the take.
