Adam Schefter, of the NFL Network, reports Oakland Raiders DL Derrick Burgess has still not shown up for the team's workouts and he may hold out for a new contract.

Raiders starting out 07 in typical Raider fashion. Just Hold Out Baby!

Good. Pile on the misery, I have no love for the Raiders.

Where is he in terms of years left on his deal? What is he making? Since the NFLPA has about as much stroke as Watermock at a PTA meeting...holding out is the only option players have when they outperform their deals. Although he is only going into year three with the Fade. He's put up some sexy numbers.

Maximus...Jossjeff...fill us in.

It was something like a 5 yr 15 million dollar deal, back when noone wanted him.. dude failed the Seahawks physical.

Looks like disrespect to me !!

yes, his deal was 5 yrs 15 mil. and he watched kerney get his deal which i believe was almost double burgess'...so now he wants his new market value since no one has had more sacks in the last two seasons.

Discontent in Raider Nation ranks is almost unheard of. This is extraordinary.

As a rival fan, very nice to see. He is a VERY good DE. WOw he would look good in orange and blue.

Hey a man can dream can't he?

cmhargrove · 04-16-2007, 11:05 AM

Wasn't he the 2005 NFL sack leader?

watermock · 04-16-2007, 11:08 AM

Considering the good terms between Shanny and Crazy Al, this should be a done deal soon.
