Re: Pats to Franchise Wilfork today
I don't think too much should be read into this. We all knew he was going to be franchised. They were obviously working on a long term deal but couldn't agree. The ball is now in Wilfork's court; does he sign the tender early and request to be traded? Or just sit back, refuse to sign and hold out of OTAs and camp. I wonder if he will eventually cave and take the long term deal the Pats are offering, drop his demands slightly for long term security. He should be careful as the deal the Pats have offered may not be on the table much longer if they decide to go a different way in free agency.
