4. Donald Driver
Where do we start with Donald Driver, who’s possibly the greatest modern Packers receiver ever? Originally a seventh-round pick out of Alcorn State in 1998, Driver quickly developed into one of Brett Favre’s go-to receivers in the mid-2000s and eventually helped Aaron Rodgers win a Super Bowl in the twilight of his career.
At the time of his retirement, Driver finished as the Packers’ all-time leading receiver in both receiving yards (10,137) and receptions (743) and remains the leader to this day. Over his 14 NFL seasons, he only missed four games. His 61 career touchdowns ranks fourth-most in franchise history. All in all, Driver is easily one of the most decorated receivers to ever play for the green and gold.
Driver’s best season came in 2006 when he caught 92 balls for 1,295 yards and eight touchdowns. One season he later, he caught Favre’s record-breaking pass which broke Dan Marino’s all-time mark of 61,361 career passing yards. Driver also holds the record for longest touchdown reception (90 yards) in Packers’ postseason history.
After a stellar career, Driver was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame in 2017. Though he was never one of the elite receivers of his generation, his consistency and longevity places him among the Packers’ greats.
