3 sacks in 2 games. Has to get better setting the edge though.

Keep grinding.

He became the forgotten man last year (especially by the coaching staff) after Payton spent so much draft capital on Davenport...

Lot of pressure in the coaches' room to justify the Davenport pick, so he was getting a lot of the attention...

To Hendrickson's credit, per the articles, interviews, he put in the extra work in both the film room and weight room to get to where he is...

When Hagan and I exchange notes on him during the lead-up to the 2017 draft, we got real excited about the idea of stealing him in the third round...

Tthat changed we when traded for a R3 pick to get Kamara, and took Anzalone as well...

Trey showed he was smart, but he had the mean streak just underneath; athleticism was there even if his wingspan was slightly less than ideal...

Hope we can find a way to keep him, but if this keeps up, don't see it happening...
