It's easy, and only takes a few moments.We have a healthy amount of people with consistently good takes here though, I would expect some of those people over there too. Maybe they just aren't in the thread yet. Or maybe they hate Judon too, which is what I'm afraid of.

The "Bill is tanking" narrative also just died.Crazy! So much for elite players snubbing us because of Bill.
There were a lot of edge options on the table and clearly Belichick valued Judon the most. I trust his judgment in terms of evaluating scheme fit and pursuing the right guy.
Say what you will about his drafts, but Belichick rarely whiffs when he targets specific FAs. I’m optimistic.
Hell, even Adalius, for all his warts, was a helluva player for the Pats when he was on the field and locked in (during the 2007 season especially).
Kontra- do you prefer Lance over Jones? I've seen a lot of different opinions on both with people rating Jones higher and then other people rating Lance higher.I think we jump up into the top 10 for Lance.
Everyone in the X/O twitter-verse (including beat guys) seems to love this signing and calls it a great fit. On top of that BB opened up the wallet pretty deep for him so internally they must also like him a lot.
No offense but all of this is should be worth more than what CaptainRock69 on the Ravens board has to say.
I’d be happy with either one to be honest. Jones, I’d be happier with at 15. I think Bill has made it pretty clear that he’s enamored with the dual threat QB, though, so I can see Lance being that guy.Kontra- do you prefer Lance over Jones?

Now if they can find a QB in the draft. Or somehow get jimmy g out of SF. they will have the makings of a really good team.
He was great that first year and looked good until he broke his arm (I think that was the injury) in 2008. Seems like it has been forgotten that he wasn't a complete bust here.There were a lot of edge options on the table and clearly Belichick valued Judon the most.

Him being a "bust" is a myth.He was great that first year and looked good until he broke his arm (I think that was the injury) in 2008. Seems like it has been forgotten that he wasn't a complete bust here.

1st 25 games here were fine. 12 sacks. 12 PDs. Played all over the line. Decent tkl numbers for a OLB. He was fine.He was great that first year and looked good until he broke his arm (I think that was the injury) in 2008. Seems like it has been forgotten that he wasn't a complete bust here.
I’m not against this.Or we run on 94% of all plays.
I really balked at that for a while, but you are starting to convince me. If we cannot get him, I like Kellen Mond later in the draft. I think this team would be electric with a young Lance.I think we jump up into the top 10 for Lance.
One guy who can catch the ball and we are tailored for Jimmy? Umm no.Seems to me with the smith signing, this offense is tailor made for Jg. Hope he becomes available
Because of Belichick's friendship with Saban, I suspect he will get some insight into Mac Jones' "intangibles" at quarterback. Things that scouting and film study don't necessarily show, but that defined the career of Brady. If Saban says that Jones has those intangibles, I suspect that Bill goes after him in the draft. If not, maybe Lance, a trade for Jimmy, or some other solution.Kontra- do you prefer Lance over Jones?

Sorry, but can‘t find the tweet source, but I read that Judson is the 5th best in the NFL for QB hits in the last 3 (5?) years. Might not be elite for sack totals, but that’s right up there.
