[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 433982, member: 5830"] I understand all the reasons not to keep him. However, I think that one very important aspect about keeping a player like Driver is what he brings to the locker room and the huddle. You can't have enough quality individuals like Jennings and Driver around. While Green Bay did struggle hanging onto quality rookie receivers, it's not a department of need. Jennings, Nelson, Jones, and Cobb already form a great receiving group. None of them are a real threat to leave right now so letting a borderline rookie talent go in order to keep a proven veteran with incredible intangible benefits for the team is worth it IMO. I think that it will all come down to cap though. If my memory is correct, DD can only knock his salary down to about $1M due to the new CBA. A rookie would be about half that amount so if $500k makes all the difference for TT, he will let Driver down gently. [/QUOTE]
