Eagles' Isaac Seumalo getting every chance to start at left guard

It's impossible to compare Isaac Seumalo's progress with the Eagles from this spring's organized team activities to the same time last year, because Seumalo could not even attend last May.

Due to NFL rules, Seumalo needed to wait for Oregon State's academic schedule to end before he joined the Eagles for spring workouts. That kept him in Corvallis, Ore., trying to stay up to speed via Skype video conferencing with offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland. As a third-round pick, the missed time set back hopes that Seumalo could secure a starting job as a rookie. A pectoral injury during the preseason didn't help him catch up in the competition.
