Packers likely to cut Chad Clifton and restructure Donald Driver's contract· Page 3

Keeping Donald Driver has nothing to do with nostalgia at all. Anyone who thinks Ted Thompson operates that way is a flat out nimrod. The only way Donald Driver SHOULD make the final roster is if he is one of the 5 (or 6 if they keep 6) best WR during camp. As I said before, I say keep one less TE (Andrew Quarless would be on PUP most likely) and use that spot for WR.

I think Chad Clifton is done. He doesn't have Daryn Colledge helping him out. Look how medicore Clifton was without Colledge. Watch the tape with both 76 and 73, you'll see. Packers drafted two LT's the last two years with number one picks. It's time to have them be the bookends and let Marshall Newhouse be the top T backup.

Chad Clifton underwent back surgery and the Green Bay Packers are going to wait to make a decision on the future of the veteran left tackle until after the club’s medical personnel have been able to evaluate where the player is.

Figured they'd just cut him outright.

If Donald Driver earns a spot, so be it. That's the only way he should be retained in 2012. Earn it or lose it.

DD will make the team in 2012 if he's better than guy #5. It's as simple as that. 🇹🇹 and 🇲🇲 want the best 53 men on the field. That's how they roll. I thought everyone understood that by now.

My man Donald Driver

(thanks to Pack93z for the pic)
2010 will be seen as the beginning of the new Packers dynasty. 🇹🇹 🇲🇲 🇦🇷

If the press about Gurley is true and he has spiderman hands, I hope he does. But if he doesn't, don't throw Gurley in there just because he might be good in the future.

Whoever is better now, gets to play.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Who else do you trade if you want to move Cobb up the receiver ladder? As I said Jordy and Jennings are staying put and there is really no market for DD. Jones is the odd player out.

you dont trade people away just because u feel like moving a guy up the depth chart

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

Sure ... a lot of teams are considering him to be a 2nd WR on the team. Then why didn't no one sign him last season when he was a free agent ... and now they will trade for him?
