Matt Judon:

Potential suitors: Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets

Losing Matt Judon would be a huge blow to the Baltimore Ravens defense. Judon was arguably the heart of the team’s pass rush last year behind his career-high 9.5 sacks. Considering Baltimore used the franchise tag on the 27-year old edge rusher it’s unlikely he goes anywhere. Instead, we’ll brainstorm some teams that could trade for him.

The Buffalo Bills have the most complete defense of any of the teams on the list. That being said, they need an edge rusher to put it all together. Judon would give them exactly that and that unit would be sick nasty with him.

The Miami Dolphins have the draft capital to swing for a proven edge rusher in Judon and the Ravens should be more than willing to comply. Considering Miami’s woes on drafting edge rushers as of late it would be nice to get a proven commodity in Judon.

Just when the New York Jets thought they got a steal for their pass rush in Jachai Polite he ends up not even making the team despite being a third-round draft choice. Now the team is once again in need of an edge rusher and they should take an interest in Judon.

All in all, Matt Judon should be back in Baltimore for 2020, but a tag-and-trade isn’t completely out of the question here

These are the Baltimore Ravens top free agents hitting the market. All four will be sorely missed if they do indeed part from the team, but the teams we named as suitors would all be very lucky to claim any of their services.
