PHILADELPHIA -- It's little surprise that Eagles' rookies Josh Huff and Taylor Hart already feel right at home at the Novacare Complex.

Huff, a WR picked in Round 3, and Hart, a DE nabbed to open Round 5, both played under Eagles head coach Chip Kelly at Oregon. Both already see plenty of similarities between the program the second-year coach is building in Philly and how things were done in Eugene, Oregon.

"Everything is the same from what he did at Oregon," Huff said Friday, the first day of the team's rookie minicamp at the NovaCare Complex. "What he did here is just more complex and it takes a lot more time, whereas at Oregon it was just quick and simple, to the point."

Huff explained that the biggest differences between the offensive schemes are the terminology and hand signals used to describe and relay in play calls.

It's that experience under Kelly that Huff hopes to use to help enlighten some of his veteran teammates when they join the rookies for the beginning of OTA's.

"I'm a lot more comfortable here than I would be if I was drafted somewhere else," Huff explained. "I know how things are going to be run here. Even though I'm a rookie, I can help some of the veterans who just don't get it yet. I can go in and help them with that. It's a family environment here just like it was at Oregon."

Hart's landing in Philadelphia means he will be reunited with defensive line coach Jerry Azzinaro, who coached him in college, and the rookie believes that experience will benefit him as he begins his first NFL season.

"Coming back here to learn some more, I was pretty excited to get back here with him," Hart said. "I think the toughest part of this process is having to go into a new place and a new environment, but me landing here, it helps to have familiar faces in coaches, players and it helps us out pretty good."

Like Huff, Hart says that he already sees similarities in Kelly's NFL philosophies to those instilled at Oregon.

"It's just another level," Hart said. "This is the NFL. It isn't college anymore. There are some similarities but also some differences as well."

Kelly made it clear during the draft that he leaves much of the final decision on whether or not to choose an Oregon player to his lieutenants in the team's war room, but the familiarity certainly could prove to be an asset for both coach and player.
