Getty Images According to Dan Arkush of ProFootballWeeky.com, teams sources within the Green Bay Packers organization are facing a dilemma when it comes to veteran wide receiver Donald Driver. The Packers aren’t sure if there are enough balls to go around for Driver, Randall Cobb, Tori Gurley and Diondre Borel. At the end of the day, even though Driver restructured his contract, he’s not guaranteed a spot on the Packers’ 53-man roster.

  • So Ted Thompson is at work again...first stinging along Brett Favre for three months now he's messing around the Donald Driver. Hey Mr. Thompson- we love Donald! He's the one of the best players the Packers have and the most positve diplomat of the team...don't mess with his flawless career like you did Brett's
    you can be cut from the team too!!!!!!!!!

  • I agree cheesehead. Football is a business. When a player's skills start slowing, as Driver's have, then it is time to look toward the up and coming guys. I like Driver. He has done alot for the Pack. But liking a guy (and keeping him on the team) and doing what is best for the team to win may be two different things.
    And I agree with you on Favre. Favre has no oone to blame but himself.

  • I love double D and everything he has done in gbay and for the sport. He is a class act like no other. If he makes the team great, but if for some reason he does not then maybe we could keep him in some other capacity. With that said, spicegirl take your head out of your a** and wake up. cmon really???? Thompson stringing along Farve??

  • I still think that if Driver does not make the roster the Packers are damned fools if they let him go ANYWHERE. Make him part of the coaching staff! The guy is good at running routes and making adjustments on the fly, reading coverage, getting his quarterback out of trouble, blocking down field, a good solid player with the talent and experience needed by the youngsters. Ted, don't let that get away from Green Bay. As for Favre; Brent, we hardly knew ya' ;)

  • I know Donald wants to play one more year. If he can end his career with the Pack why not offer him a coaching job? His talent and overall body conditioning speak for themselves. His character as a great family man and service provider to the community, would only solidify his image in GB.

  • The only reason to keep Driver is sentimental. I truly believe
    that TT doesn't have a sentimental bone in his body. He runs a business and only trys to make decisions for the good of the team. He's not hitting 100% but he's darn close.

  • You are reading too much into this. Outside of Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews, I doubt there is anyone GUARANTEED a spot on the roster........lighten up folks.

  • I love Donald Driver but players come and go. We had great players in the past and loved them all. Either they retire or just continue their career somewhere else. THey have families too and may want something different for them also. He is a great player and it would be nice to still have him here. But it is his decision too.

Green Bay Packers Passing Attack Myth

Via Losers Bracket  |  June 30, 2012
So the Green Bay Packers have abandoned the run and only pass, correct?  While they pass much more than they run, there are a number of teams that have a higher pass to run ratio than the Packers.   As illustrated by the graphic below, division rival Detroit Lions have a more frequent passing attack than anyone else in the league. The biggest shocker to me is that Tennessee, with...

Perhaps it's a good thing the Packers won't see the Detroit Lions for the first time next season until Week 11 of the league schedule, which falls on the third weekend of November. What's become a chippy rivalry between the longtime division foes added a new layer for potentially fueling more friction. Lions head coach Jim Schwartz indirectly may have taken a shot at...
