OTA's are voluntary, but coaches would still rather have all their players there than not to prepare their players as thoroughly as possible. A player who actively campaigns against that is not someone coaches and FO personnel are going to want to deal with.
As a coach? No, it'd bother me. I'd make it work, though. He's a good center and having the NFLPA president on your team and within your sphere of influence would be valuable. He's a good locker room guy. Your initial argument was that he was a poor presence to have around the team. That is what I am disagreeing with, not whether or not he would bother me if I was the coach. It's the NFLPA president who represents players around the league. He'd be a great presence to have around.
