Ziggy Ansah of BYU and Dion Jordan of Oregon both had impressive workouts Monday at the NFL Scouting Combine. Pass rushers are always at a premium, and Jordan and Ansah are viewed as two prospects who could be better in the NFL than they were in college. "He’s obviously a guy that’s talented physically," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said of Ansah, who was coached by Schwartz at the Senior Bowl. "He went a long way to answer questions about his background and aptitude." Jordan ran a 4.6 in the 40-yard dash, and his quickness at outside linebacker stalking quarterbacks could make him a top-10 pick. Interesting that the Eagles have the No. 4 pick, where new coach Chip Kelly could be tempted take Jordan, whom he coached at Oregon. Asked about Jordan at the Combine, Kelly didn't try to hide his affection. "Dion’s just a special guy in my heart," Kelly said. "I had an opportunity to be with him for five years. He came into Oregon as a receiver, moved to tight end, we switched him over to defense the beginning of his sophomore year. He had a huge impact, not only on the field but off the field."
