Appearing on NFL Network Thursday, Eagles coach Chip Kelly mentioned Florida State QB E.J. Manuel as a player he "didn't get a chance to coach but would like a chance to coach."
Kelly pointed out that he recruited Manuel out of high school and also watched him at the Senior Bowl, where by all accounts Manuel shined. NFL Films' Greg Cosell recently called Manuel the only quarterback in the 2013 class capable of running the read option. Manuel could be on Kelly's radar in the second round.
