Burress faces criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, a felony carrying a minimum prison sentence of 3 1/2 years upon conviction. All indications are the two sides are haggling over a plea deal for the star receiver. Multiple reports indicate that Burress' attorney, Benjamin Brafman, and prosecutors remain at odds over the terms.
