I've seen his ability as a pass rusher. He's probably the best "pure" pass rusher we've had since Tippett. Not exactly someone to move off of for nothing.Not sure why the responses in this thread are so outright against the idea.
I’m perfectly fine with parting ways with him right now, at the right price. Great player but the defense did just fine without him last season. We have young talent in the front seven.
This is a rebuild and while the veteran presence is nice I don’t think he needs to be a part of it and if you listen to him talk he doesn’t seem to care if he is (understandably).
I think the only reasonable scenario to move Judon is if you can get a second for him, AND you go out and sign a high end pass rusher in FA to replace him.I saw also on NFL network Bosa may be available in a cap casualty.
I gave my reasons as to why I would entertain the idea in the OP. That 2nd rounder could be your future starting RT or LT. Maybe a key contributor on offense at TE or WR. If Judon comes back, do you even bother re-signing the ascending Jennings? If you do re-sign Jennings, you’ll be rotating him with Judon and paying Judon even more money for the ability to do so. I dont know. I like Judon a lot. He just feels like the right player at the wrong time for us. Not to mention the poor guy will be ending his career on a rebuild. Oof.Why trade the best player? Tell me what 2nd rounder are you going to draft that would equal his production?

You want to give up one of the Pats top players for a 3rd round draft pick? No way Jose.100% yes and I believe they will. 1. He wants more $$. 2. He hasn’t really played an entire great season since he’s been here…late on the season especially he has either fallen off, or been injured. 3. On next years team he would be an unnecessary luxury IMO.
Trade him to a contender for a 3/4 (I’d almost prefer a 2025 3rd), resign Jennings at half the price, and draft a mid round flyer Pass Rusher.

Aren't they trying to acquire talent and not give any away? If they have the money, which they do, then they need to spend on players, not potential busts.If we could get a third? In a heartbeat.
I like the idea of Judon AND Bosa.I saw also on NFL network Bosa may be available in a cap casualty.
Who needs valuable veterans? Everyone, that's who. The strategy of dumping valuable veterans for potential draft busts would make your dire prediction an accurate one.In a second. Any valuable veterans should be moved for future picks or young players under contract. This team is not sniffing the playoffs for the next few years.
I guess with a new coaching staff, Jennings could possibly be used more in passing situations. I didn’t think he was bad in that role but the previous staff didn’t like him there as much.He can dry his tears with his millions.
And why not have both Jennings and Judon and have a crazy good pass rush? Even with a revamped offense, they're still going to have to play defense at some point in the game.
This season out of the top 20 players in sacks only 3 of them are 30 or over. Last season it was it was 5 out of 20. Out of the 5 in 2022 none of them were top 20 in sacks this season.Aren't they trying to acquire talent and not give any away? If they have the money, which they do, then they need to spend on players, not potential busts.
There it is. How interested would you be in trading Matthew Judon? I love the guy. His energy, enthusiasm, his ability to get after the qb. But, there’s a few things working against him. He’s 31, coming off a season ending injury, has been a 10+ sack guy only twice in his career and is not only the highest paid player on the team at 14.6M but is going to want some more money before the season starts. A trade wouldn’t be so much about cap space (wouldn’t save a ton) but about getting an asset in return. I’d trade him for a 3rd and re-sign Jennings. Our pass rush took a hit when Judon went down but he’s on the last year of his deal. Bite the bullet now in a rebuild year. Thanks for everything but time to move on.
How does everyone else feel? Is there someone else you’d prefer to trade?
@archstanton543 what do you "disagree" with?The future of any player over the age of 30 needs to be at least discussed on a team that won 4 games.
Acquire young talent, sure. Judon isn’t old but he isn’t young either. By the time this team is ready to legitimately compete, there’s a question of whether Judon will even be the same type of player.Aren't they trying to acquire talent and not give any away?
