Which brings us to 2012. How does Matthews fit in? And what effect will going from 232 pounds to 250 pounds have on his speed and agility? Matthews' best chance of making an impact is probably to beat out Brian Rolle for the starting WILL spot, alongside DeMeco Ryans and Mychal Kendricks (These are just projections, of course. A lot can change between now and Week 1). His other option is to be so good in coverage that the Eagles use him in sub packages for either Ryans or Kendricks. But last week at OTAs, Ryans and Kendricks stayed on the field in nickel situations.
