Player Agent rules need to be changed for several reasons. Firstly, I don't even know what agents do. Salary negotiations are almost nonexistent, so, especially if agents get a cut or something, what work are they actually doing? Secondly, the league doesn't seem to support agents very well given there is ZERO information about them posted in any prominent location. Thirdly, with the league really wanting to contract league economy, it gives even less meaning to agents fighting to funnel money any which way.
Therefore, I would propose we just get rid of agents entirely because.... why? I feel like if agents were a true asset to the league, their role/purpose would be far more obvious to point out just through logic and common sense, but so long as the league economy (which has been discussed in point tasks to exhaustion) is in contraction from head office officials, and so long as there are numerous ways to make money in the league (twitter, jobs, stocks, etc.), it makes agents "maximizing" your league contract something of minimal impact. The majority of players I know have contracts that serve as a de minimus proportion of their yearly income. Lastly, even if the economy is "fixed" to prioritize contracts and create a legitimate free agent market, players will still have enough money-making opportunities where they will likely have little to no interest in paying someone to play hardball when most players care about where they go more than how much they make.
