SUMMARY
Wide Receiver Rank: #77   
Overall: #217


Driver failed to top 1,000 yards for the first time in six seasons. He finished with just 565 yards, his lowest total since 2001. Driver played 15 games, but wasn't as much of a factor in the offense as the Packers implemented some of their younger options. Driver failed to top 100 yards in any game and had more than 50 yards just four games. He did play his best football during the Packers' Super Bowl run, having 55-plus receiving yards two of four games. Driver isn't a starter anymore at age 36, but can play a reserve role and have some success in that role. Driver is a strong receiver that runs good routes and has plus hands. He isn't a speed burner, but knows his limitations and excels in the things he does well.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Driver has never been a big-time fantasy star, so at his age, don't reach too soon for him. He could top last season's numbers if all goes well but don't expect a big uptick in production. He is worth a look as a No. 5 receiver but that is probably about it. His best days are behind him.
Green Bay Packers general manager Ted Thompson is not sentimental and he's going to have to knock down WR Donald Driver's $5 million cap number for 2012. Thompson might decide to cut Driver no matter what, but if he doesn't, Driver will be required to take a hefty pay cut.
Fantasy Impact: It would be a bit of a surprise to see Driver return to the Packers in 2012.

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver is scheduled to receive a $2.2 million roster bonus in March if he is still on the team.
Fantasy Impact: This would be a surprise but you can't totally rule it out.

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver had three receptions for a team-high 45 yards and a touchdown in the Divisional Round playoff game Sunday, Jan. 15, against the New York Giants.
Fantasy Impact: This might have been his last game with the Packers. He has lost a step but still produced some throughout the season.

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver posted two catches for 29 yards in the Week 16 game against the Chicago Bears. With the yardage total, he moved over 10,000 yards for his career. He is the first Packers player in franchise history to reach the lofty plateau.

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver had four receptions for a season-high 75 yards in Week 14 against the Oakland Raiders. After posting a total of 23 receptions over his first 11 games, Driver has four grabs in each of his past two starts. His 75 yards were the most for Driver in a single game since he had 89 yards Oct. 3, 2010, in Week 4 last season.
Fantasy Impact: Driver is starting to get more action but still isn't much of a fantasy play. He might be worth a spot start here or there.

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver had four receptions for 34 yards and two touchdowns in Week 13 against the New York Giants. It was Driver's first multi-score game since Nov. 21, 2005 in a game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Fantasy Impact: Driver remains a risky fantasy option because of his sporadic work but he could be worth a spot start here or there.

Green Bay Packers WRs Donald Driver and James Jones were fairly quiet in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. Driver had three grabs for 36 yards, while Jones was good for just nine yards on one catch.
