Patriots said to be listening to offers on Judon.
Thoughts?
Most of his money was in signing bonus so he's only due a $6 million salary this year. So you could give him a raise in terms of 2024 cash earnings without needing to really break the bank.
Lets say you can get him for a 4th and re-sign him to a deal like the one they gave Danna. Anybody interested? Let's say it's Ogunjobi's deal
3 years/$28 million with a $10.5 million signing bonus. That puts $12 million or so in his pocket this season (bonus plus base) and leaves us with a team option at $5 million for next season or about $7 million in dead space next season (so you probably retain him).
Where I think I'd probably draw the line is around Armstead's deal. 3/$43.5 with effective guarantees of 2/$30 million. The other issue is that I don't think he's ever really played with his hand on the ground at this level. I think he's pretty strictly a 2-point stance kind of player. So he wouldn't be any sort of base down solution for us.
Strictly as a 3rd/passing down specialist, does he really bring that kind of value to the table for us? Not sure he's an ideal scheme fit.
