He was to make $6.8 million this season and with the revised numbers he’ll collect $7 million.Driver can earn $4.8 million in 2011 with $4.1 million in salary and a signing bonus of $700,000 that is due on the first day of training camp. In 2012, he will also earn $4.8 million with $2.6 million coming in base salary and the remainder in a roster bonus. There are also incentives that go as high as $1.8 million in the deal that are based on performance.If Driver, 36, continues to perform at the same level – he’s made 70 or more catches in seven of the last eight seasons – he’ll have no problem collecting those salaries in the coming seasons. In fact, he’ll be a good value for the Packers.source: <a href="http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Donald-Driver-deal-tacks-on-96-million-in-2011-2012.html" target="_blank">Donald Driver deal tacks on $9.6 million in 2011, 2012 | National Football Post</a></blockquote>
