Not a bad backup plan if we can't extend Wilfork.

Those aren't the numbers that would be applied to Wilfork. They will be higher because he's not a FA until 2010.

true but I would think the difference isn't going to be that much..

Still lower than franchising a corner... we franchised Asante, this is definitely a no-brainer.

This makes me feel pretty good about the Pats being able to franchise Wilfork for 2010 if they are unable to work out a long term extension. The franchise number for D-tackles is second lowest to only Kicker/Punters. It will surely go up next year, especially if Haynesworth gets a big deal, but no matter what the number is it will be a manageable number.

The Cornerback $$'s have gone nuts over the last few years - It's higher than the WR $$ No. - Crazy.

Of course, you can thank 1. Asante and 2. Tom and Randy for demonstrating to the league the need for great CB's.

Fixed your post for you. After all, Cassel had as much success throwing against Asomugha as anyone.
