Marco Rivera, Ahman Green and Mike Flanagan were all a bit long in the tooth and had recent histories of injuries, yet found teams willing to pay them significant sums of money to try to eek out a couple more years. I don't think either Clifton or Driver can do as well on the FA market as any of those three did, but for some teams the addition of an experienced veteran who can serve as an example in the locker room is a needed ingredient that the team is willing to pay quite a bit extra for. Thankfully, the Packers seem to have a room full of those types of players.
I would like to see both come back in reserve roles, with salaries in the $1-2 million range + playing time/performance incentives. I'm afraid that might be too big of a status change for each to accept in GB, and that it might be an easier thing to do with a different team. For that kind of money they might refuse to play in GB and agree to play for the same elsewhere.
