And as noted, Nate sometimes provides really good insights.
Today, for instance, he made a REALLY good contrast between the Jones camp and the Hill camp.
Hill, with Drew Rosenhaus - an experienced and excellent GM - had all these pieces in motion pre-draft. He knew his client wanted to be the #1 WR so he went to the Chiefs and confirmed they wouldn't do that. Once that happened he got to work finding a team that WOULD do that and then creating a bidding war on the open market sufficiently strong enough to ensure that a team would be willing to make an offer that would convince the Chiefs to pull the trigger.
That was Rosenhaus behind the scenes moving pieces around and using connections to make sure his client got what he wanted and giving the Chiefs ample motivation to accommodate him.
Compare that to these ****ing clown Katz brothers and it's just a night and day difference. Rosenhaus recognized that "**** you, pay me" wasn't going to do his client any good. He recognized that working in his clients best interests required that he also work on accommodating the Chiefs best interests.
And with that, his client became the #1 paid wide receiver in football. Whereas Katz is out there simply giving the Chiefs the bird after seemingly hiding the ball for several months.
Good agents work wonders. And Nate often has a little of the insight on the inside with the Chiefs that helps him bring that insight.
