Vince Wilfork pumps up the Pats and his annual draft day fundraiser

Vince Wilfork is prepping his annual draft day fundraiser at Pinz in Milford on the 26th which benefits the Joslin Diabetes Center and the Diabetes Research Institute.

Of course, this year’s edition - No. 9 for those counting - will be bigger and better than the previous eight. That’s how Vince & Bianca roll.

The Pats nose tackle will be bowling, chatting and hanging out with fans while waiting for Bill Belichick to make the picks at Nos. 27 & 31, or do his usual manuevering around the draft board.

In my story in today’s Herald, Wilfork talked about the confidence he has in Belichick and the decision-makers to bring the right people in. 

”They’ve proven they can go out and grab guys, guys people never heard of, or guys who have a different role somewhere else, and come here and be successful,” Wilfork said when reached by phone. ”I know Bill knows what he’s doing. I don’t get caught up into why he’s bringing so and so in. I don’t think he would jeopardize this franchise or this organize by bringing in someone that’s a flat out knucklehead.”

For those interested in the draft day fundraiser, you can get more informatiion on tickets, sponsorship, and ways to donate by reaching out to CJ Yanofsky at the Vince Wilfork Foundation: cj@ksportsent.com. Donations can also be made online at www.vincewilfork75.com.
