It sounds like he will be hitting the market after having a strong year in Baltimore.

He played OLB in their 3/4 defense so he might make sense in Miami.

He will cost a lot but they have the cap space.

Thoughts?
 
I think he would be a solid fit for us. I'm not sure if pay top dollar for him but if he can be had on a reasonable contract I'm down.
 
He’s a really good player but not someone I’d break the bank for.

Honestly, there really isn’t any player I’d ever break the bank for again except an elite QB.
 
The Ravens have about thirty million dollars in cap space. Judson is there best pass rusher and if they let him go in free agency they will then have to go out and spend a lot of their cap money trying to replace him.
I think they will sign him to a new long term contract or put the franchise tag on him if they don’t agree to a contract before free agency starts. He would be a nice addition on the Dolphins defense but I expect him to be in a Ravens uniform when the 2020 season begins.

I would think the franchise tag would eat up most of that 30M. He doesn't strike me as a franchise guy.
 
Za’Darius Smith (a comparable player that left the Ravens last year) signed a 4y $66M contract with GB. I’m not sure we’d be willing to shell out the ~$16M annual contract Judon will most likely receive. If the Ravens don’t resign him, it’s because they can’t afford him.
 
Ravens announced today that re-signing him is a top priority.

I am just going by a report that came out of Baltimore in late December that they would probably franchise him if they can’t sign him to a new contract. Yet he is their top free agent on their present roster that they want to sign to a long term deal.
I just don’t see them letting their top pass rusher hit free agency but we will see.

I think the Ravens have all but confirmed they are not tagging him and Harbaugh's comments are bracing them for his departure. The Ravens let a lot of guys go.

I agree they are going to do all they can to resign him. I personally don't think he is a break the bank guy. A franchise tag will severely hamper Baltimore if they only have 30M in my opin.

Don’t do it. Don’t pay anyone elite money on the edge in this scheme as a free agent.

He’s not as good as his former teammate zadarius smith.

Im not paying Judon $15 mil per in this scheme. Nope

Would you pay Clowney?

You pay him and Clowney and suddlenly the edge of the defensive front looks a whole lot better.

I wouldn't over pay for judon. But I'm a clown for Clowney and would pay top dollar for him.
