Eagles Select Cincinnati C Jason Kelce (Rd.6, No.191)

With the 191st overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select Cincinnati C Jason Kelce. Strong run blocker moving up draft boards. Blocks with good lean, fights hard throughout the action, and anchors in pass protection. Stays square, gets his hands into defenders, and strong at the point of attack. Kelce has been durable and productive on the college level and added the dimension of effectively playing another position last season. He lacks true NFL size yet is a solid developmental prospect who can make a depth chart at several offensive line positions.
