I missed this from over a week ago, but in Kuharsky's AFC South blog, he posted an email he received from Slaton's new agent.
Quote:
"WE ARE ALL SO EXCITED TO HAVE HIM PART OF OUR FAMILY ..WE ALL KNEW WHAT A TALENT HE WAS ON THE FIELD, BUT THIS KID IS EVEN BETTER OFF THE FIELD!!!! OUR ENTIRE TEAM HERE AT NSA TRULY FEELS BLESSED TO HAVE HIM..."
"OUR HOPE FOR HIM IS THAT HE WILL JUST GET BETTER AND BETTER EVERY WEEK, AND HELP HIS TEAM TO THE PLAYOFFS AND BEYOND ...AND AFTER REALLY GETTING TO KNOW HIM, I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT WILL HAPPEN....OF COURSE WITH SUCCESS COMES GREAT "NEW " CONTRACTS....AND NOTHING MAKES ME HAPPIER THEN THAT!!!!"
"STAY TUNED..."

First, yes, this is not the first agent I've seen email in all caps. Annoying. Second, as Kuharsky interprets, it seems like no holdout or new contract demands are imminent, and I agree. But you gotta know that Slaton is setting himself up to ask for even bigger money next year.
