Ravens take Division II sack leader Matt Judon in 5th round

The Ravens reached into the Division II ranks with its fifth-round selection (146 overall), picking defensive end Matt Judon of Grand Valley State.

The 6-3, 275-pound Judon won the Gene Upshaw Award as the best lineman on the DII level, largely due to his freakish numbers that included 20 sacks and 81 tackles, including 23.5 tackles for losses.

Judon played his final year as a sixth-year senior after redshirting as a true freshman and then sitting out the 2013 season with a knee injury. He sat out the East West Shrine game with a minor injury.
