When can I sign/talk with an NFL agent?
Usually after your final college game. You are allowed
to talk with an NFL agent as a senior but NCAA rules
prohibit signing with an agent while playing college
football. In some cases Junior athletes can petition the
NFL to enter the NFL draft early. (January 15 of each
year is usually the deadline). The courts have decided
Sophomore players are not eligible for the NFL draft.
Agents are prohibited from communicating with juniors
by the NFLPA.

Why an Attorney/Agent?
My experience as an attorney has provided me with
many valuable skills that the average agent does not
have:
I understand the importance of representing my clients.
I take my representation of my clients seriously as their
futures and livelihoods often rest with me.
I understand the art of advocacy. The daily practice of
law is synonymous with being an advocate for a client.
I am very experienced in dealing with contracts and
negotiations. Being an effective negotiator is part of the
daily practice of law.
I have also developed great people skills. I have
learned to be a great communicator and routinely talk
to my clients regarding any subject.
I am governed by a strict Code of Ethics which sets
standards by which all attorneys must practice when
representing clients. The ethical rules Attorneys must
follow surpass those in any other profession.
