CHICAGO (UPI) - Agents for first-
round NFL Draft picks agreed
yesterday to wait out team owners un-
til they raise salary levels for un-
signed players.
Thirty representatives for the 25
unsigned first-round picks and other
unsigned free agents decided at a
meeting they will not sign with any
clubs until they end their plan to roll
back salary levels to pre-USFL num-
bers.
"WE formulated a unified policy
that we would not accept the rollback
salary levels that the NFL
management and teams have been
proposing in negotiations so far this
year," said Frank Murtha, an agent
for Richard Johnson of the University
of Wisconsin, a first-round pick of the
Houston Oilers. "The only time an employee is

group also discussed various legal op-

violations.
"WE KNEW going in that the NFL

said. "It is an extemely healthy, big

"WE FEEL they have set the
market value this year with the
signing of Bernie Kosar," he said.
"We intend to discuss Mr. Kosar's
contract with the other clubs."
"We didn't discuss specific num-
bers. We discussed what types of
numbers will be reasonable for
management to be able to pay. We as
a group agree that under existing
NFL revenue, the NFL cannot pay 25
or 30 percent annual increases (as
they did in 1984)."
Talks still stalled
NEW YORK (UPI) - Major-league
players and owners yesterday
haggled over the financial condition of
individual clubs in an effort to reach a
collective bargaining agreement.
The negotiation session, the 29th
over the last nine months, lasted 2 %2
hours and left both sides in dispute
over the data the owners have put for-
th in hopes of convincing the players
of the woes they claim plague
baseball.
Donald Fehr, acting executive
director of the Major League Baseball
Players Association, said figures
were examined for 12 American
League clubs. He has asked the
owners to review the clubs finances E
submitted for 1984.
"We've asked them to tell us 'How
much are you trying to save,' " Fehr
said. "They still haven't told us and
we'd like them to tell us quickly,"
