TPM,

Mine was a 9th rounder in 2004, drafted out of a JuCo where I was coaching.

We elected not to have an advisor. I had a pretty good idea that he was going to go somewhere between the 8th and 15th round. The family talked it over and we just decided based upon the info we had and that unless he was going to be in the $500,000 or more dollar range, an advisor/agent was not necessary.

Some folks may think otherwise and that is o.k. This is what we did and every family and their situation is different. He and all of the other young men that have been drafted, regardless of where it was are very fortunate.
