Ian Gold is considered one of the better weak-side linebackers in football, but he might have a pretty good future as an agent. Gold signed a five-year, $22.5 million deal with Broncos after talking with the Bucs, Texans and other teams, but he did it without an agent. Gold received an $8.5 million signing bonus. Negotiators praised Gold for how well he handled the talks. When he asked for more than the teams were willing to pay, he was cordial and gracious in getting his point across. In the end, though, Gold, who spent last season as a strong-side linebacker with the Bucs, wanted to return to Denver and help them in their transition to a 3-4. |

Ooops. I guess Gold is gone now. Please retract my claim of his availability from an earlier posting in another thread.
