5. Eric Kendricks, LB (2010-14)

Eric Kendricks is the best and one of the most beloved UCLA Football players in the last ten years. Using the entirety of his eligibility to play all four years, Kendricks made an impact every single season.

Anchoring the middle of the linebacking unit, Kendricks found a way to impact the game as he helped UCLA become one of the best defenses in the Pac-12. With 476 total tackles, Kendricks is UCLA Football’s all-time leading tackler. He is also having quite an early career with the Minnesota Vikings.
