Frankly, there's only one untouchable player on this team, and that's Tom Brady. And even he won't be untouchable in 5 years. The whole philosophy of BB's Patriots have been a middle class team who fit within the Patriots schemes. The Patriots really dislike having the top paid player at a position, and other than AV, I don't know if they have any. Even TB took a hometown discount, and if AV also took a hometown discount, I'm sure the Pats would have signed him to a long term deal in an instant. I think the Pats want Willie back, but there's a lot of competition for Willie with all of the former Pats coaches out there. Willie might be worth more to teams like the Jets or Browns in order to give those teams veteran and winning leadership, so those teams will probably be willing to overpay him. As fans, we just gotta move on and trust Bill. He'll always have us competing for the championship.
