Furthermore, not only is Sanchez's brother a lawyer, but he is also advised by an agency that represents several NFL quarterbacks.
Thus, I refer to my prior assertion: claims about his lack of maturity or stupidity vis-a-vis that selection were, and remain, completely erroneous and without merit.

Even if his brother were an agent, I don't think it is wise to hire them. Agents need to be advocates, but also be able to distance themselves from the situation.
Doctors are told to never operate on their own family. The risks are too high, and their decision making is clouded by emotional connections.
Agents have to be pro athlete at the table, but objective away from it.
How objective would a brother be?
Also, it isn't just the one thing. It is a mixture of things.
It is blowing off Carroll and his parents when they advised him to stay in school. This is the biggest thing.
It is also hiring his brother as an agent.
And, even though he didn't get charged, the fact that he was even accused of sexual assault has to at least raise a question in your mind.
