Smith has no leverage. Peyton will pick his team and his agent will work out the best deal he can. If that's SF, then Condon will help Smith with his next team. Condon has a LOT of high profile clients. I see no need for Smith to get a new agent because there is no conflict of interest. There is nothing that any agent can do for him that is going to make a blessed difference if the 49ers want Manning.

As someone who employs an agent (actually several agents in an agency) - your take on things, Mac is absolutely right on. There is a hierarchy in businesses. The top producers are more highly sought after and you can't get around it. In my agency there are perhaps 20 different artists of which I'm in perhaps the to10-15%. I don't feel slighted if I didn't get a particular contract because another artist had "the look." It's just part of the job and part of my agent's job is to do the best they can for ME while representing their other clients as well. They get the job done.

Interesting perspective. Apparently you have a far more interesting existence than many of us on here. :) More power to you.

Interesting, this just popped up on NFL.com

"

Smith now is considering changing agents,

a league source told the San Francisco Chronicle

on Saturday. NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora reports that Smith has not yet interviewed any prospective new agents.

Condon has been Smith's agent since the quarterback entered the league as the top-overall selection in the 2005 draft. Smith became a free agent when he was unable to agree to a new contract with the 49ers."
