In addition to requesting his release, the Boston Herald reports an "angry" Vince Wilfork cleaned out his locker and "ripped his name plate off his locker stall" after the Patriots approached him about reworking his contract. At the time, at least, Wilfork "seemed convinced" he was done in New England. "I sure hope Vince will be with us next year," owner Bob Kraft stated at the NFL league meetings on Monday. Kraft was noncommittal on Wilfork's Patriots future, and it's unclear where negotiations currently stand. "We have to put a team together of over 50 people," Kraft said. "We have a salary cap. In the end, it's about both parties feeling it's a good transaction and it's a win-win. I think that's what we're both shooting for."
