    They have some big name players in their stable. Kuechly, Suh, JJ Watt, Richard Sherman. They're also running the risk of having NFL Front offices steer clear of their players if they keep this crap up nit-picking over nickle dime issues in rookie contracts.

    The one article says it is up to the agent...this CAA agency. That is Bullshit....it is ultimately up to the player to tell his agent to get a fucking deal done. Who is working for who?

    And, I believe what you say HAS happened in the past. There have been times that teams refuse to draft a player based on which agent he has. (wasn't that the case with Drew Rosenhaus...and why he nearly got drummed out of the agent business?)

    Not to the point that I've already decided hes our savior or a piece of shit. I like the guy, I'm happy we drafted him, but I haven't said anything unreasonable.

    The team drafted him with the idea that he 'might' be a special Troy Palamalu type of player.

    Wouldn't that be nice?

    And if not, being a solid player is fine.

    But you've gotta get your ass to camp because there isn't a whole lot of time to get acquainted, get learned, get used to and understand the NFL game and you're roll in it. We've seen it before. If a guy holds out he falls behind and it stunts his growth.

    Peppers and his mom are very close. His dad was in jail most of his life. His older brother was also killed when Peppers was young. Mom raised him through all of that. He's repeatedly said she's his main inspiration.

    Lets say that you know that you graduate college and know that the average career length is 3 years average. wouldn't you want the most money you can get? Just being realistic

    I get that & that's fine- and Mom is going to be living the high life courtesy of her son. Got an extended family with their hands out based on the Draft Day Party I saw too.

    Boo-hoo. Just being realistic. $10 million and change on your rookie contract, and your f**king agent wants to quibble? That sets him AND Mom up for life, So if you flop, you can't get that second Lamborghini you were counting on with the 4th year money? That's not us Joe six-pack reality kid.

    There is some smoke to the fire that the Creative Arts Agency mentioned in the article are notorious for selling more than they can get with their players. The biggest hold out last season (Bosa) and the 3rd and 5th pick are all repped by these guys and Mr. Peppers.

    The problem these guys don't understand is that at the end of the day the owners/organizations hold the most chips. Bosa's largest gripe (and most players) if the offset language which guess what? he caved on that to sign his contract last season.That shit isn't ever going to change, I just hope Peppers wises up to that.

    Dad's been out of jail for a few years. I've only really seen pictures and videos of him with his mom though. I'm pretty damn sure the mom's not a bad influence

    He had a draft party therefore his extended family is definitely asking for handouts?

    He's thinking about his second Lamborghini?

    You seem to have your mind made up
