  • Kelly - Ertz Connection.

    well there you go!

    "Unfortunately, I know Zach personally. He caught the tying touchdown pass against us last year in our one loss, to Stanford," Kelly, the former Oregon coach, said. Ertz's TD tied the game, which Stanford won in OT. Ertz caught 11 passes in that game.

    Kelly and the Ducks thought the tying catch was not a catch. Kelly and Ertz carried on a dialogue about this during the draft process, starting at the NFL Scouting Combine.

    "When I first walked in to the meeting room with them, he asked if it as a catch. I said 'of course it was a catch,' " Ertz told reporters on a conference call. He acknowledged sending Kelly a handwritten thank you note after the combine, with a PS affirming the catch.

    Kelly said when he got Ertz on the phone Friday night, Kelly told him he guessed they'd have to agree now that it was a catch.

    Kelly and Ertz talked about mismatches and stretching the field.

    "I think the Eagles are the perfect spot for me," he said.
