He's not a great player. He's a player who makes some great plays, drops a lot of balls, struggles to stay healthy, struggles to be on the same page with our QB and is involved in a lot of drama. I think if a person takes and objective look, he's not a very good piece for this team. A super reliable, trust worthy TE who can block is a better fit for this offense than Finley. His downs outnumber his ups IMO.

interesting question. if fins dr. clears him to play, but no team dr's clear him to play. can he still get the injury money? or does the one dr. clearing him to play wipe out the insurance money?And that’s the point at which Finley will have a tough decision to make. With a $10 million disability policy available to Finley if he’s never able to play again, Finley will have to decide whether to call it quits for $10 million tax free, or whether to return to the NFL for far less than what it would take to earn $10 million after taxes.

The $10 million insurance policy Finley took out on his health before that injury wouldn't immediately void if he signs another contract, Baratz said. He'd have to play in four games first.
Finley can entertain as many offers as he likes and can even sign a contract without voiding his $10M payout.
Baratz has a vested interest in claiming he can just take it. It is very likely more complicated than that:

From a poster on another board that I am prominent on.
its gonna be very interesting just how that policy is worded
the way i understand it, its basically a disability policy. if he gets injured and can't play again he gets the money. its not insurance against not making enough money.
so his doc saying he's fully healthy and cleared to play, does that void the policy? the teams don't want to take the risk, that doesn't mean he's disabled.
also, what happens if a team from the cfl offers him some peanuts for a year to play? does he have to take it? its work. he would still be able to make a living playing football, he just wouldn't be making as much. and again, its not insurance covering not making enough. if he turns down the cfl teams offer does it void the deal.
if an NFL team offers him a 1 year deal for the vet minimum, can he turn it down and still claim the 10 million? i'd say no, because a team somewhere was willing to pay him to play
i see a court fight coming, and a settlement for less then 10 million
The Pittsburgh team doc who did the surgery has cleared him and he has said the Steelers have offered him a deal.
So he might have a tough time cashing in that insurance ticket this year.“Pittsburgh have showed me a couple deals, but we all know the money ain’t what it’s supposed to be,” Finley recently told USA Today.

Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
That Pittsburgh doc's name is Joseph Maroon. I wonder if he considered a name change when he entered the profession.
guess he said this on twitter: "let's try this again. #greenbay"

According to the source, Finley’s meeting with McKenzie was to go over the results of his most recent MRI scans and to talk about where he stands medically as he continues his effort to resume his NFL career. Finley was not scheduled to meet with any of the Packers' football people at Lambeau Field Thursday, instead meeting with McKenzie at a local hospital.

I just don't see the point of spending money on this guy.
