I definitely see Jermichael Finley coming back.
Yes, I know the drops are excruciatingly annoying to see, but at least half of them are on Aaron Rodgers. The guy will even admit it. I distinctly remember him saying "Jermichael is one of those guys that I can throw open."
Throw open? That just sounds like cocky bullshit.
Losing Finley would be an extreme blow to this offfense. Yes, we won the Super Bowl without him. But if Finley never drew the weird coverages opposing defenses threw at him, you wouldn't see Jordy Nelson and Greg Jennings having the year they've had.
Without Finley, you can forget about Rodgers ever having another 40+TD year again. You can probably expect more 9-7 seasons over 13-3s too.
People act all conservative whenever Finley opens his mouth. It's not like he's saying anything disrespectful or making the locker room uncomfortable. And how can you say he's going to "demand more money?" He probably will, but he's not going to ask for the entire bank. He knows he sucked.
Finley will be re-signed through a contract with possibility reaching a lot of escalators depending on his performance. The franchise tag won't be necessary. I guarantee that.
And if he does demand a boatload of money, he won't get it. Simple as that.
