Eagles signed fifth-round OT Dennis Kelly to a four-year contract.
A 6-foot-8, 321-pound project, Kelly has long enough arms (33 1/2 inches) to stay at tackle and is agile for a big man. He was a 240-pound high school tight end, but emerged as a 37-game starter at left tackle for Purdue. Kelly is a "finesse" blocker with athleticism, so he'll fit OL coach Howard Mudd's scheme. Kelly will likely spend his first year on the weekly inactives list. Wed, May 9, 2012 01:42:00 PM

Eagles selected Purdue OT Dennis Kelly with the No. 153 overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft.

A tree-top blocker at 6-foot-8, 321 pounds, Kelly was a three-year starter for the Boilermakers. Although he moves relatively well for his size, Kelly is a bit of a waist-bender who struggles in tight quarters. A left tackle in college, Kelly will likely be pushed to the right side in Philly as a developmental project for OL coach Howard Mudd.
