For any d-lineman these days the percentage of defensive snaps will often relate to the kind of rush characteristics a particular defensive scheme is trying to support. d-line rotation is now much more popular for teams mounting a heavy pass rush.
Wilford's technique really does not correspond to that sort of play and the Pats et al really don't mount that sort of a pass rush as a group. You rarely see something from them that you would refer to as a jail break although there are some teams that rely on that jail break style.
Vince tends to play the role of immovable object in the middle of the Pats front and as has been correctly posted by someone else that is more of a NT technique than a DT technique. However you just can't move him and if the QB ventures to close in an effort to escape the onrushing DE's then the guys trying to block Vince get to find out how strong he actually is.
