    Following the contract extensions for wide receivers Jaylen Waddle and now Justin Jefferson, former Philadelphia Eagles CEO Joe Banner says current Eagles WR DeVonta Smith should fire his agent, unless he overruled his agent's advice.

    Smith, 25, signed a three-year extension worth $75 million and $51 million guaranteed with the Eagles on April 15th.

    Smith's agent is Kelton Crenshaw of Klutch Sports .

    On April 24th, WR Amon-Ra St. Brown and the Detroit Lions agreed to a four-year extension worth $120 million in new money and $77 million guaranteed.

    On May 30th, Waddle signed an extension with the Dolphins worth $84.75 million and $75 million guaranteed for the same number of years, three, making Smith's extension look like a bargain for Philadelphia.

    Today, the Vikings made their All-Pro wide receiver Justin Jefferson the highest paid receiver of all-time, inking him to a new four-year extension worth $140 million and $110 million guaranteed.

    "I feel like I'm in one of the top tier organizations," Smith said on Thursday's 94WIP Afternoon Show with Ike Reese, Spike Eskin and Jack Fritz . "Howie [Roseman], Mr. [Jeffrey] Lurie, they take care of us. Anytime you're in the building you feel like you're with family...The relationships I've built in the city, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else."
