Ok....Now we wait to learn if he signs the tender. My assumption is that it is of the exclusive tage variety.

Let the trading begin. Maybe it's already done.

Trades can't be made until March 5, and Wilfork has to sign the tender to be traded...

There is smoke billowing in this area of Pennsylvania,I wondered where it came from........

After looking closely, it looks to be coming up north and out from the ears of Mr. Wilfork up in Massachusettes ....He is not a happy camper..

oh,the Poor 7 Million dollar boy,I feel so sad for him

Interesting that it's coming three days before the deadline... why not wait until the last minute? What's the advantage of doing it now?

Doesn't mean something's not already worked out, right? Probably there many teams that are more than willing to give him a lot more than 7M for one year, in which case the ink on the tender is still wet.

Because they made an offer, it was rejected. They went back to him, and he said, "No way."

A lot more than $7 million means nothing. They need to give him a lot more than $10 million.

Unless you're saying that someone is willing to give up top picks AND many millions to sign Vince. Fat chance.
