Mychal Kendricks, Philadelphia Eagle

In the Eagles' 1976 media guide, among the free agents vying for jobs, listed along with Vince Papale and Johnnie Walton, there's a running back from UCLA named Marv Kendricks.

"He talked about Dick Vermeil all the time. Actually, they still keep in contact," Mychal Kendricks said. "I think his career ended because of a fractured neck, or something like that. We talk about it, but we don't really get into detail."

"There was a lot of Eagles stuff around" the Kendricks home, Mychal said. "He had this Eagles jacket - the classic Eagle, bright green silk."

Mychal was always a linebacker growing up, he said, although he chose the number of his NFL hero, Denver running back Terrell Davis, No. 30. Mychal wore that number at Cal, and his brother Eric currently wears it at UCLA.

With the Eagles, Kendricks is No. 95, a jersey that has seen hard times the last decade or so, belonging first to Jerome McDougle, then to Victor Abiamiri. Kendricks said he isn't worried. "It's the placebo effect - if you believe it, then I guess it's going to happen. But I don't believe in that stuff," he said. "It's the number they gave me."

The guys on CSN have also been saying he looks pretty good so far

yea we know it's rookie minicamp and nothing means shtein right now

[ice grillin you]

he can grab 57 when keenan clayton gets cut this summer

[PhillyPhreak54]

They better not cut Clayton.

[SD]

They better not cut Clayton.

yeah the special teams would really suffer. He'd be the first LB I'd cut too.

[PhillyPhreak54]

[ice grillin you]

farg that - Akeem Jordan and Casey Matthews go way before Clayton

Matthews came around at the end of the season, I know it's popular to hate on the guy but he didn't play bad once he was moved to the WIL. It's not his fault he was thrown into the middle of a weak group of LBs then told to make the best out of fending off Guards who were coming out to nail him because Wide 9 sucks ass agains the run.

Assuming they carry 6 LBs:
Ryans
Kendricks
Matthews
Rolle
Chaney

Jordan and Clayton are expendable. They could cut either one and it wouldn't make a bit of difference. I haven't seen anything from Clayton that tells me he'll ever be more than a generic ST guy.

[Diomedes]

That seems right.  I prefer Jordan.

Mychal Kendricks leads NFL linebackers in missed tackles (, rec allowed (24), & YAC (164). He is also 2nd in rec yards allowed (231) and has no sacks, FF or interceptions.

Howwwwwwwwwiiiiiiie!

[ice grillin you]

i think it might be time for people to stop suckling the 2012 draft

[hbionic]

Whomever was suckling on that teet, should be murdered then raped.

[ice grillin you]

you didn't hear?

fletcher (side of a milk carton) cox and mikeal (matt mccoy) kendricks were the bomb ass future of the defense

[General_Failure]

The future sucks so hard.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yeah he has to clean up the missed tackles. Way over aggressive.
