A lot of people played next to Cam Jordan. Not a lot of them made the all-pro list. I'm sure Hendrickson was assisted by the talent around him, but that doesn't mean he's not talented enough to at least play on par with Lawson.
I like Lawson and hoped we could keep him but didnt want to pay him like a top DE, because has hasnt been that for us ever. He gets pressures but not many sacks. He basically had one really good game last year. We have been waiting for him to have his breakout season (10+ sacks) his whole career and it never came. He will have to make that happen as a Jet now, and good luck to him. QB hits and pressures are fine but they can still end up as positive plays for the opposition. Sacks cant though. We just signed a 13.5 sack guy in Hendrickson. I'll take it.
