Hi ,

  In present network setup , if your router is not doing route advertisement via BGP . Connect your internet link directly to your ASA device and switch to your ASA inside interface 

Do PATing accordingly . 

For ASA version 8.4

For ASA Version less than 8.3

I want to connect the ASA to current router and allow it to check packets from my entire network (HQ and other 5 sites).

But if its easy and wise to replace the router then it be fine.
