If the 2011 NFL offseason was not overshadowed by a lockout, it might be best known for the accumulation of new clients by Drew Rosenhaus of Rosenhaus Sports Representation. Then again, if there was no lockout, perhaps Rosenhaus would not be gaining so many new clients. Many rival agents believe that Rosenhaus has signed a […]

At the end of last week, I reported that two players selected in the 2011 NFL Draft had left their agents for Drew Rosenhaus, even though the NFL Lockout is still very much in effect and there are no rookie contracts being negotiated or signed. Allen Bailey dropped Terry Watson for Rosenhaus and Jason Pinkston […]
Last Friday, Marc Isenberg contributed a great piece to Sports Agent Blog concerning his Do It Yourself Rookie Symposium. Based on the fact that the NFL rookie symposium is cancelled this year, Isenberg has offered to provide a free copy of his Go Pro Like a Pro booklet to any NFL draftee, undrafted free agent, […]
Staying on the topic of Drew Rosenhaus and the 2011 NFL Draft, the man seems to be on a mission to sign players who were represented by another entity on the days of the Draft, even though he cannot negotiate the terms of their rookie contracts yet. Earlier today, I reported that Rosenhaus signed former […]
I am always surprised when I see that a University of Miami player is not represented by Drew Rosenhaus in the NFL Draft. Was the player not recruited at all by Rosenhaus or did some agent just happen to do something to persuade the player? After all, even if you hate Rosenhaus, the guy is […]
The following is a guest contribution from Marc Isenberg. Follow Marc on twitter @marcisenberg. I will be publishing my review of Marc’s “Go Pro Like a Pro” (discussed in this post) in the near future.

My friend Rand Getlin recently wrote a story about “cash-strapped NFL players seeking high-risk ‘lockout loans.’” In his article, Getlin raised many good points, the most salient one being that players need to be very careful of who they work with to secure loans, and more importantly, the interest rates associated with those loans. Just last […]
No preseason or regular season NFL games have been cancelled due to the NFL Lockout to date, but the Lockout has its first couple of victims: the rookie symposium and the joint NFL/NFLPA player education programs held annually at Ivy League universities. Every year, all players selected in the NFL Draft are invited to the […]
Public relations executives take note: I am more than happy to publicize your athlete clients charity events. It is great to champion athletes for the great things they do off of the field/court. We chastise them enough for their unscrupulous acts. Willis McGahee of the Baltimore Ravens will be hosting his first annual charity golf tournament on […]
Another football player has dropped his agent for Drew Rosenhaus, and Rosenhaus Sports Representation gets the player right before what should be the player’s first big pay day. Ahmad Bradshaw has terminated his representation agreement with Craig Domann of Domann & Pittman, and has signed with Rosenhaus. Head over to the Domann & Pittman website, […]
