A defensive scheme that often utilizes a 4-3 wide-9 attacking front with an emphasis on speed and disruption from its linebackers.
Initially a sub-package blitzing and coverage specialist, with the ceiling to develop into a Pro Bowl-caliber weakside linebacker.
Kendricks' value diminishes significantly in a traditional 3-4 two-gap scheme where his size and block shedding would be consistently challenged.
His exceptional athleticism and blitzing prowess fit perfectly into a scheme that prioritizes speed and versatility at the linebacker position.
Selected #46 overall in Round 2 of the 2012 NFL Draft by Philadelphia Eagles out of California.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
