"Don Shula knows that I know this business. He calls me just to pick my brain."
"I am not 100 percent honest with teams. It's my job to represent my clients and use EVERYTHING I can to do right by them. I'm not going to lie constantly. I'm not a pathological liar. But in some instances I'll bluff. Teams are not supposed to believe agents."
"I consider myself to be an ASSET to the teams. I take these guys and encourage them to work out and diet and watch their lifestyle because that's the ONLY way they're going to make it. That's the only way I'M going to make it. I DON'T blow smoke up their butts."
"If [a general manager] traded players to teach an agent a lesson, I don't think he'd be a general manager for long. You start teaching agents lessons, you're going to cost yourself a JOB."
"If a guy is unhappy, if a guy wants to leave his agent, if a guy is in the process of changing agents, I will strike, and I will go right for the jugular. But I will not call a guy up and say, 'Hey, you ought to dump your agent.' "
"They DESPISE me. They hate me because I'm young and I've broken into this business and KICKED everybody's ASS. I LOVE the fact that my competitors hate my guts."
"They're not going to catch me in a lie. I am an expert in dealing in the gray area with NFL teams. I take pride in my ethics. But I am a relentless, ruthless warrior. I am a hit man. I will move in for the kill and use everything within my power to succeed for my clients."
