As for the agent thing it's just business no need to get butt hurt over it.
If you are going off of PFF grades you cannot dismiss him going from #1 to #37 this season either. I dont believe Bates is the 37th best safety, but he sure as hell isnt #1.
His lackluster play during the regular season is the cause for the current contract standoff IMO.
