The Baltimore Ravens have selected defensive end Matt Judon out of Grand Valley State in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft.
Judon is a raw edge-rusher, but with Terrell Suggs and Elvis Dumervil, the Ravens will be able to give him the time to transition to the NFL. He dominated in Division II, racking up 20 sacks in 2015.
