Questions relating to designing PCBs

Hi, I am designing a small micro with the RFM12B radio. The eagle footprints I find all have a vRestrict area underneath a good portion of the radio. Can I remove that or is that really needed? I really need the space for routing since I am trying to fit everything in slightly over an inch squared.

The only way I was able to get the footprint was from opening another design that had it. Which most came from Jeenode.

Thanks.
