Coach Chip Kelly was "effusive" in his praise of ILB DeMeco Ryans at the Combine, making it clear Ryans has a future with the Eagles.
Ryans is not considered the best 3-4 defender in some circles and the Eagles are transitioning to a 3-4, but Kelly is confident he'll make it work. Ryans, 28, finished his first season in Philadelphia with 113 tackles, one sack, and one interception. Pro Football Focus graded Ryans as a top-20 inside linebacker.
