The Facts:
When the Bucs gathered for their first trio of off-season workouts, they had one player participating who says he's dissatisfied with the status of his contract talks, and one who says he is satisfied with the status of his contract talks but is not participating. The unhappy participant is quarterback Jeff Garcia; the happy non-participant is Graham.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
"The workouts are all voluntary right now and we've got some family things we're doing, so that's why I'm not there," said Graham, who is seeking to extend a contract that has one year remaining at $605,000. "It's not because of the contract. That's going good; it's almost there. And I plan to be there when the next voluntary workouts begin after the draft. ..." At this point, there's no real reason not to take Graham at his word. We'll also note that Garcia, despite his desire for a new deal, also plans to be on hand for the next round of workouts.
