00:00We were talking about Matt Judon a little bit earlier, and you know last year, my thoughts
00:05on that, you and I battled over it or whatever, Judon's trying to go back to it again.
00:09Fourier brought up the idea of what do you do with this guy?
00:14You more than likely got to trade him.
00:16He's not a part of the future.
00:19Maybe there are a couple of different ways that the Patriots can sort of spice up a trade
00:24to maybe get a little bit of better value.
00:26Where do you land right now on Judon and what to do with him?
00:30We talked a little bit about this yesterday, plug, on the Six Rings podcast, Fitzy and
00:35I.
00:36In my best case scenario world, I would try to do with him what they did with Hunter Henry,
00:42who is arguably your best offensive weapon, your most consistent offensive weapon, who
00:46they brought back on a more team-friendly deal.
00:50He got less money than he did on the deal he was on.
00:53You don't see that too often from a guy who's producing at a relatively high level.
00:57He came here at, what, $12.5 million a year and he took a discount on that.
01:01He's under 30 for three years now.
01:02It's like nine and change, I think.
01:04I would love to see an ability to do something similar with Judon and be like, listen, we
01:09already paid you for your prime and you gave us return on your investment, like our investment.
01:14You were good.
01:15We acknowledge that despite missing most of last year.
01:18We want you to be here for whatever this is going to be for the next two, three years.
01:22We want you working with Keon White and Josh Uche and Anfernee Jennings, and you seem
01:28to like it here.
01:29You seem relatively comfortable in everything that goes into being a Patriot, whether it's
01:33old school Bill or new school Mayo.
01:36Could you do something like that?
01:37Now it doesn't seem like he's open to that.
01:39Seems like he wants to get paid one last time, despite heading toward his 32nd birthday in
01:43less than a month.
01:45Seems like he still thinks, no, no, no, I'm a Pro Bowl pass rusher.
01:49Pro Bowl pass rushers make 20 plus million dollars a year.
01:52That's what I should be making 20 to $25 million a year.
01:55I think that's unrealistic.
01:56I would not do that.
01:57That's where the trade comes in.
01:59The question is, people know that this is now, because remember he had a contract issues
02:05with Baltimore.
02:06He got into a little urinating contest with them, with the franchise tag, and that went
02:11poorly.
02:12Remember he threatened a media member because it went so poorly.
02:14He was going to blackmail them about strip clubs and all those various things.
02:17That's always a great way to go.
02:20Yeah.
02:21So two years in a row, by his own description, he was, he handled it like trash last year.
02:26Right?
02:27He said that was trash the way he handled it.
02:28But yet we all know he wants a new contract.
02:30He did it.
02:31He did it.
02:32And now we know, okay, so you're not going to trash it this year, but you still want
02:36a new contract.
02:37I just wonder if teams look at like, wow, this guy's kind of been a pain in the ass
02:40for three different years.
02:42I mean, three different portions of his career with two organizations that are pretty well
02:46respected.
