If you have the first pick, have the contract agreed upon. SD does show the NFL how not to do business. Does Stirling own the Chargers too?

The trade that they got Rivers, 2004 3rd round pick, 2005 1st round and 5th round picks for Manning. That means they are not equal.It's simple math.Manning = Rivers + 3rd + 1st + 5thorRivers = Manning - 3rd - 1st - 5thTherefore Rivers does not equal Manning.

Of course I'd ask for as much, if not more, than Manning received.I was speaking logically. Agents have a responsibility to get their clients as much as they can.
