#Jets CB Dee Milliner parted ways with Impact Sports after failing to be selected in the top 5. Story on @NFL.com. First Geno, now Milliner

I don't see why it matters now 
Should have canned the dude before the draft.

He is damn lucky he got drafted where he did, nothing made him a top 5 pick. Not even close..

Only elite CBs are worthy of being a top 5 pick

This seems like a douche move, for sure... but I really don't think Milliner fits the mold of a prima donna yet. He was always pretty quiet while at Bama... nothing like Dre Kirkpatrick.

Agreed. Played through a ton of injuries and kept his mouth shut while not being a starter until his final season despite top 10 pick abilities.
Funny how we criticize 22 year old kids for firing agents with millions of dollars on the line when none of us would call a 45 year old man a drama queen or immature for finding a new real estate agent if they felt an agent was not properly advertising their home.

The process is proven to only work in the minor leagues.

I think the people criticizing these moves are doing so because it's laughable to think an agent has such an influence over the process. Like somehow he can talk one of these NFL GMs into taking a guy they don't want to take.
But of course being a bama guy you lemmings would probably defend him under any circumstance.

Of course, I could never see an agent making grandiose and exaggerated claims either. Feed them what the want to hear, assuage their egos, get paid and deal with it later.

So Geno Smith and Dee Milliner show their class with their agents.

I get that. The agent has little to do with draft position. But there is a lot that goes on with an agent relationship.

No need for this to be a flame thread, but your reputation for comments like this makes this expected.
