From Reiss' Sunday column this morning:
"4. Judon's deal: When the Patriots restructured outside linebacker Matthew Judon's contract last August, which reduced his 2024 base salary to $6.5 million as some of his money was moved into 2023, it set the sides up to return to the negotiating table this offseason.
Now, with the first wave of free agency over, it opens a window for the sides to work toward a resolution, which they've begun to preliminarily explore. Judon's return from a torn biceps that limited him to four games last season adds a layer to any discussions, as the team will likely want to protect itself with incentives that reward Judon for being on the field."

After a lackluster start to free agency, the Patriots' season hinges on the NFL draft
The Patriots have many needs to address in April's NFL draft after failing to upgrade at key spots so far in free agency.
