[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1004824, member: 7261"] While I don't know what is required of a Sports agent, I am pretty sure that a lawyer is required by law, to present any offer to his client, that the opposing side puts on the table. If I am wrong, then I watched way too many episodes of "Suits". Given the amount of money that agents make and the fact that most of them work on a percentage of the deal, if I was a player, I would want to know each and every detail of any conversation my agent was having about my future. I also understand that there might be a lot of "loose" conversations by phone between the Packers and players agents. Something like this" Gute: "Hey Joe, we would like Jared back on the team, but we are still working on some things on our end, probably going to be around a $5-6M per type of deal, we will get back to you." Joe: "Thanks Gutey, Jared would love to be a Packer, but he's seeing offers from a bunch of teams, so let me know what you got ASAP." So yes, in that situation the Packers can say they were interested in bringing Cook back, but Cook and his agent are correct in saying that he never got an offer. The truth sometimes lands in the middle. [/QUOTE]
