Kelly said McCoy trade was difficult decision. Said the cap money is divided up into Murray, Mathews and Sproles

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly said that #Eagles are open to Brandon Boykin moving outside. "Whoever is the best out of that group will play corner for us."

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly said that Josh Huff's preseason injury set him back, forced him to play catch-up. Huff will get more of an opportunity w/Maclin gone

Kelly excited to see Mark Sanchez's growth in second season in system

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly said that he thinks the #Eagles have a great scouting staff. Hasn't been tough to communicate what players fit his system

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly: "If you accept it, expect it." His example was if you draft a 5-7 corner, he will be beat for a jump ball by a 6-4 WR.

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly said he didn't feel any additional toughness was needed on defense. Cited the outstanding run defense.

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly said DeMarco Murray has unbelieveable patience and vision. Runs with toughness. Rarely has negative runs. Really excited to add him

Kelly said that the bottom line is a player has to earn his position. If you put a guy out there who didn't earn the time, you lose the team

Kelly said the #Eagles money allocation needed to be shifted toward the defense more this offseason and the decisions show that

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly said you can't put a price tag on every position. You're never starting from scratch and there isn't always a player worth the cost

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015

Kelly said that by having Murray and Mathews the team can distribute the carries more evenly.

— Dave Spadaro (@EaglesInsider) March 25, 2015
