We average over $35 million a year in signing bonus money during my 17 years of the Area Code games. Since I did not charge the players to participate I charged the agents a special rate for the 6 days and 36 games.
The "great" opportunity for the agent to interchange with the 300 pro scouts and the 400 college coaches was "priceless". I earned my PHD in Social Psychology watching the interaction.
When you interview the player agent [advisors], take notes, ask questions and request a summary. Then have a family meeting. Remember Uncle Sam is also an agent.
