The Patriots' decision to trade Matthew Judon highlights their shift in strategy, prioritizing draft capital over extending contracts for veteran players as they rebuild.
Judon, who recorded 32 sacks in 38 games with the Patriots, expressed his desire for a new contract, but the team opted against meeting his demands.
With Judon entering the final year of his contract and coming off an injury, the Patriots viewed him as expendable in their future roster plans.
The trade to the Atlanta Falcons for a third-round draft pick signals the Patriots' commitment to reshaping their roster amidst a rebuilding phase.
