interesting...pats are so high.
is this from a players perspective via the agents, or just the agents?

I don't find that interesting in the slightest. The Patriots seem to negotiate quickly in trades, signings, and letting players walk. Agents appreciate that as every day their player is on the market the value usually diminishes, hence why they're at the top of 'prepared'.
Same scenario: while Sherman was bitching about Seattle not negotiating with him, IMO Seattle was doing him a favor. "We're not going to be able to match what some other team will pay, so there's no reason jerking you around for an extra week through meetings when you can just go find that team now." But I wouldn't expect a player with no business/financial/legal background to understand that and players are likely to take it personally.
As for 'respect the most', that's probably just based on smart past trades and success of the team. Seattle/New England/Baltimore the last 20 years have been quite successful and Ozzie Newsome routinely makes smart trades and good value moves, ignoring bad offers. That said, how anyone can put Newsome #1 after that hilariously terrible Flacco signing is beyond me

Several QBs got paid equal or more for accomplishing less than Flacco

She'll say something like "The Mike Brown System is simply above everyone else so other's don't understand it"

Nice way of saying Elway consistently pulls wool over the player's eyes.

They get team friendly contracts; that's bad for THEIR client. It can give their team an edge.
