OT: Wilfork released from Patriots
Sent from MGoBlog HD for iPhone & iPad
I'd be totally up for a 3-4 if we didn't have Ansah, I don't think he could slide into an end spot, and he really isn't a 3-4 linebacker.
It sounds like he will probably resign with New England anyway.
If he were planning to resign he likely would have just renogitiated his contract. NE is up against the cap. They are going to lose significant players especially if they keep Revis who is going to break the bank.
Wilfork is primarily a 3-4 DT (has played some 4-3 pre Achilles injury).
Don't really think he would be a good fit, and second everyone else who thinks he will resign with the Pats
Isn't it Wilfolk?
I'm assuming nobody will need it, but /s

This feels like a cap-cutting mechanism. Wilfork isn't leaving NE by all accounts.
By all accounts? Reading his statement sure sounds like he is. "take into consideration many things but mainly my family and see where life goes from there"
That doesn't sounds like a guy who is going to take a paycut to stay in NE. Sounds like he may be want to return home.
Seems like this is just cap negotiation. NE has basically designed their entire defense around him taking on a double-team at the point of attack. Unless they feel that he is slipping, but I didn't see it.
