2007 SSG 1st and 2nd Round Contracts – The contracts negotiated for 1st Round pick Adam Carriker and 2nd Round pick Kevin Kolb represented the largest percentage increases over the previous year’s picks than every other player selected in the 1st or 2nd Round of the draft. Most agencies are built on egos with each agent negotiating, recruiting and acting on his own. The SSG team approach benefits the players because all of the agents work together on every contract. This fact allows us to obtain the top contracts for our draft picks year and year out. |
