He hired great people and his legacy is seen throughout the league in high-ranking front office positions and how many people today are talking about him and telling Heckert stories.He took the time to help all of us get better and learn more about how to evaluate and build teams. His record as a GM was outstanding. When he worked here everyone wanted to be around him and listen to his stories about his time in the league and his experiences around the game. He was one of the first people to congratulate us all when we won the Super Bowl. Thoughts and prayers are with his family, including his kids.Heckert began his NFL career in 1991 as a scout with the Miami Dolphins, who promoted him to assistant director of pro personnel/college scout in 1999 and director of pro personnel in 2000.

Ill always be grateful for how he helped me transition into this position. My prayers go out to Toms family, friends and everyone he worked with during his career.Matt Russell, the Broncos director of player personnel, worked with Heckert in Philadelphia and Denver.Tom was one of the best because he combined exceptional player evaluation skills with his incredible network of connections around the NFL, Russell said. Those relationships he formed are a testament to how well he treated everyone. Tom was a loyal friend and my heart goes out to his family.The Browns also released a statement expressing the organizations sympathy: We are deeply saddened by the passing of Tom Heckert and share our sincerest condolences with his family and friends, including the many lives he impacted with the Browns organization and throughout the entire NFL during his established career. More than a year after he pleaded guilty to insider trading Dexter Lawrence Jersey , Seahawks linebacker Mychal Kendricks has still not been sentenced, and he wont be sentenced any time soon.Kendricks sentencing, which has already been delayed for nine months, was delayed again and is now scheduled for November 21, according to multiple reports.The Browns released Kendricks last year after the insider trading charge, and the Seahawks signed him. He was suspended for eight games last season but was a starter in Seattle when available, and he started on Sunday as well. The continuing delays may allow him to finish the season before serving any prison time.The charge Kendricks pleaded guilty to carries a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison Deandre Baker Jersey , but he is reportedly expected to get much less than that because he has cooperated with the investigation into his co-defendant, Damilare Sonoiki.
