France is a big player in the game. He started with Career Sports & Entertainment (the company I interned with), before splitting off to form his own agency. CS&E hasn't represented football players since. No one has never-ending capital, but yes, BEST does spend pretty freely. The draft has not yet occurred, but I doubt there is much disappointment on their end. The only disappointment would come for all of us noting CAA's utter dominance. It is something for everybody else to be very fearful of. One agent in particular who stands to make some big strides is David Canter of DEC Management, who has a couple of Utah players that may be Day 1 guys.

Darren is it FAME or FAAM? Who are these guys? any more info? Also do you think BEST with their never ending capital who were buying agents/agencies out are disapointed by this year's draft? I kind of remember that this article was published on here saying BEST were the top agency in terms of money,power,clients etc. I may be wrong here. Not sure? And also, which agents will have a good year regarding the NFL draft? Thanks buddy, Kam from the UK!
