If Emmanuel Sanders makes the team as 3rd round rookie will he be making about $400K-$500K a year?

Thanks SmooPower. Total salary of $881,000 isn't to shabby.

How much does his agent take of his salary? Is it a percentage like personal injury lawyers do or is it negotiable? I've always wondered.

For 10% of your income I will tell you.

Top 1% of wage earners...get ready to take a big hit for the little guy!

i've always been under the impression that it was a percentage of the salary (the main reason those guys fight to get their clients the big contract)

And even better.....he graduated! I have never understood why the pro football contracts aren't guaranteed money like the baseball and basketball except for the bonus and each year. You would think because of the nature of the sport there would be more guaranteed money.

i think their is some rule in place that the agent can't get more then 5%. that percentage may be lower though

One of I call them "my kids" from UCF my son played with, is the highest paid receiver in the history of the NFL. He pays his agent 3% I’ll take 3% of 45 Mill
