Raider rookie RB Darren McFadden

The Oaland Raiders and rookie runningback Darren McFadden have reached an agreement that is rumored to be worth $60 million, with $26 million guaranteed over the next 6 years.

McFadden's agent, Ian Greengross has been in Alameda, California since Wednesday night meeting with Raider officials.
