Every year since the 2005 season, Eagles fans have had a bad feeling in their stomachs each time they hear the name Drew Rosenhaus. Rosenhaus was Terrell Owens agent during that fateful 2005 season in which Owens was nothing more then a distraction and a hindrance to the whole team. Owens was eventually released.
Now, every time a player is represented by Rosenhaus on the Eagles roster and is in the final year of his contract, Eagles fans assume the worst. But since 2005, Rosenhaus has been nothing but professional with the Eagles.
This off-season, the Eagles have been able to re-sign DeSean Jackson and Evan Mathis, and are also in the process of signing LeSean McCoy long-term as well. Both Jackson and Mathis are represented by Rosenhaus, and both players signed very team-friendly deals that made both sides happy. We can expect the same thing with McCoy in the next couple of weeks.
I think both the Eagles front office and Rosenhaus learned a lot of from each other after the 2005 fiasco. We can expect to see a more professional relationship between the two sides for years to come. Rosenhaus is one of the premier sports agents and the Eagles are one of the most well-run NFL teams.
