That's because there's a scout on one end and an agent on the other. It's no 007 situation, though. Instead, it's a scene from the 206. His agency represents some household names, including Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. But true to his name, Foster's goal is to foster relationships with hidden gems.They are players who aren't concerned with diamonds, but who themselves are diamonds in the rough.
"They may not be an All-Star or a first-team Pac-12 kind of player... That's been my philosophy since 1989 and it's what I'm still doing today," he said.He has a special focus on west coast players and a soft spot for guys from his alma matter.MJ has been hard to miss since his days at Fife High School.
"Young men that are 6-foot-7-inches, 320 pounds that are physical specimens and athletically blessed, they don't come along all the time," Foster said."Born in Samoa, raised in Australia, only played his NFL position for two years," Foster said."I need to keep reiterating this to these teams to realize what a freak of nature this young man truly is.""Teams will start calling you in the 7th round," Foster told Ale in a meeting at his house on Friday.
