The Facts:
Dillon, who rushed for 1,635 yards in his first season with the Super Bowl champions, agreed to a contract extension that guarantees he will make $10 million over the next two seasons -- and perhaps as much as $25 million over the next five years. "This deal is one that allows me to end my career as a Patriot," Dillon said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Dillon shows no signs of slowing down now that he's entered his 30s. He had six 1,000 yards seasons in his first six years with the Bengals and then suffered some injuries in 2003. But last seson was his best as a pro and his presence made Tom Brady and the passing attack more effective. We're looking for more of the same this fall -- even without former coordinator Charlie Weis calling the plays.
