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.
