When the Minnesota Vikings selected UCLA linebacker Eric Kendricks in the second round of the 2015 NFL Draft, it was met with a lot of excitement on social media. The team has been trying to look for a long-term answer at the middle linebacker position and Eric Kendricks could fill that need. Interestingly enough, he’ll join a linebacker grouping in Minnesota that includes Kendricks’ former UCLA teammate Anthony Barr, who should aid in his adjustment to the NFL.
Recently, I had the opportunity to ask Mike W.R. from FanSided’s Go Joe Bruin website about what kind of player the Minnesota Vikings got when the selected Eric Kendricks in the draft.
