Daily News | Eagles draft Nebraska center Cam Jurgens 51st overall in the second round
The Eagles drafted Nebraska center Cam Jurgens with the 51st pick in the NFL draft Friday in an attempt to fortify their long-term depth on the interior offensive line.
Kelce’s been participating in a draft live show on Bleacher Report’s social media accounts the past two days and was on air when the Eagles took Jurgens. Kelce had effusive praise for the team taking Jurgens, noting that the Eagles have asked him to scout center prospects to help find his eventual replacement the last few years.
With Kelce still in the fold for at least another year, Jurgens will spend his rookie season backing him up and receiving his mentorship. Kelce hasn’t missed much time in the last few years, but there’s also a chance Jurgens could slot in at guard in a pinch despite his smaller frame. “He started talking about how he got some cows, he was learning how to be a cattle rancher. Shoot, I grew up on a cattle farm, and that’s what I grew up around. We started talking some ranching and football and how we can help each other learn. It was just a great convo.”
The decision to draft Dickerson, even as he was recovering from a torn ACL, paid off at least last season. The 6-6, 330-pound lineman missed training camp because of his knee, but went on to start 13 games for the team at both guard spots.
