Agreed. Bowe's agents clearly don't seem to have his best interests in mind, and, ironically, what's best for him will ultimately be best for the agents.
The whole Quinn thing is a pain. He isn't getting top ten money, but the Browns did put themselves in somewhat of an awkward negotiating position by trading next year's #1 for him, which suggests that they value him more than 22, so Bowe's folks want to wait this thing out.
