Terrell Buckley Negotiates Deal with Pats

This is kind of an interesting story in that Buckley handled all the negotiations himself without the help of his agents, the Postons brothers

why even waste your money on an agent then?

Negotiating contracts is not an agent's only job.

Big C · 06-07-2004, 06:07 PM

seems like it would be the thing that they would be experts at

lol, you would think! But maybe Buckley has a brain between his ears and has taken note of past Poston 'jobs'. Maybe he gave 'em the day off.

You notice he only got a one yeard deal, for 760,000? doesnt seem like he did that great of a job

That's probably about right for an aging vet who never was great to begin with.

Signing a one-year deal at the league minimum for vets does not take a wyhole lot of negotiating. Buckley would not have gotten much more no matter who the agent(s) might have been.

It the same deal he got his last two seasons. Why pay the postons for minimum?

Im surprised the Postons didnt try convicing the pats that Buckley is a soldier and that they heard someone say hes the best corner in the league so they are running with that assumtion when discussing the deal
