I'm just interested to see what are general opinions of Driver of the Dead with these duders:
Deathrite Shaman
Goblin Welder
Tarmogoyf
Painter's Servant
Phantasmal Image

with that style of play, just go with something cheaper to cast such as a set of Gravecrawler and Goblin Bombardment ;)

If he did it when he ETB'd, it might be worth thinking about. A "dies" trigger requires too much fiddling to make work in a format like Legacy. Legacy decks have to be more streamlined than that.

Here are some similar cards to Driver of the Dead, really not sure if any are any better, I'm excluding Imperial Recruiter for obvious reasons.
Phyrexian Delver
Razor Hippogriff
Swift Warkite
Sun Titan
Tethmos High Priest
Timely Hordemate
Woodland Bellower
Yisan, the Wanderer Bard

Could be good in Nic Fit decks... Lots of ramp ala DRS and Veteran Explorer, also lots of sac outlets in that deck. I could see Driver as a 1x of there.

I guess that's good but he is four mana and way too weak for the format
