Non compete agreements aren't usually written to attempt to keep you from competing if they let you go. Even if it were, I think that'd be real hard to challenge in court. Read the fine print to be sure.
It's just insurance for the employer, and it's perfectly reasonable. If I hire a programmer, I wouldn't want to spend all the time and money bringing them up to speed on our propitiatory software just to have them to leave six months later with our code and processes in his head to go work for our competition for an extra 10 grand a year.
You either sign a non compete or you don't get hired. There's no negotiating that, and there's no premium paid for it, it's just a term of your employment - just like you won't come into work drunk - and you'll work 40 hours a week. If somebody doesn't want to sign it, there's just no room for them.
That said - read the fine print, make sure there's nothing crazy in there. If in doubt, consult a lawyer familiar with your state's labor laws.
I think what you'll probably find if you talk to a lawyer is that it's a non-issue.
