Leftovers from Vince Wilfork's Draft Party

Leftovers from Vince Wilfork's Draft Party

Leftovers from Vince Wilfork's draft party Friday, May 9, 2014 By:Karen Guregian Vince Wilfork held his 11th annual draft night fundraiser last night at Pinz Entertainment in Milford. As always, the event was well attended, and the Patriots defensive lineman raised a ton of money for the Vince Wilfork Foundation, the Joclin Diabetes Center and the Diabetes Research Institute. Here are a few leftover odds & ends from the event: While Wilfork and wife Bianca addressed the crowd, thanking everyone for their continued support, Big Vince declined all media requests. So we can't tell you how he's progressing from his Achilles surgery, or if he'll be participating in any of the upcoming organized team activities or mini-camp. We also can't convey his thoughts since signing an extension with the Pats, and what went down leading up to that extension. Aaron Dobson, who had surgery on his left foot two months ago (March 10) to repair a stress fracture, is still in a walking boot. At least, he had one on at the Wilfork's draft night event. He also opted not to speak with the media when asked. It's hard imagining him taking part in the organized team activities if he's still in a boot. Wilfork always draws a crowd. By my count - and there might have been more - there were 21 current Patriot players in attendance counting Vince, a list that included Tom Brady, Darrelle Revis, Jerod Mayo, Chandler Jones, Julian Edelman, Rob Ninkovich and Dont'a Hightower. Wilfork even drew an outsider, as Bears receiver Brandon Marshall also attended, hanging out with the Patriots. Marshall is in town taking a class at Harvard. .
