Matt Judon of Grand Valley State Is Selected By The Ravens With The #146 Pick Of The 2016 NFL Draft

Arguably the best overall player in Division II football last fall, Matt Judon is heading to the NFL as part of the Baltimore Ravens. He won the Gene Upshaw Trophy for Division II's top lineman, conference defensive lineman of the year, and All-American honors last fall with a season that included 81 tackles, 20 sacks, and 23.5 tackles for loss in 2015.

Judon has the ability to manhandle offensive tackles whenever he wants. He is physically one of the most impressive players in the entire draft. He led all defensive ends at the combine with a 4.73 40-yard dash, 30 reps on bench press, and a 35-inch vertical leap.
