2 teams have Evans as top WR

[jjab360]

Yea, yea, we know Evans was a deep threat in college. The thing is, you can't run a 9 every single play. He has solid top-end speed, but he's a little slow getting out of his breaks and he messed up that post corner route at the combine.

2/32 teams have him as top WR? The other 30 have Watkins, so it's not an accolade.

Evans is a physical beast-- I'm just concerned about his route-running.

Wrong. The report says at least 2 teams, not 2 teams period.

For all we know, only two teams were willing to give out that information, and in actuality almost all teams have Evans as their no.1 WR.

 

[Yamahopper]

I can believe it. He might be a better scheme fit.

 

[Faceplant]

That's a draft profile from NFL.com

Shame on them then, lolz.

Yea, for better or worse, I base my evaluations on my own observations, not on the scouting reports of others. As I said in my post, Mike Evans was the better college deep threat.

To illustrate that with stats:

Anyone who says Evans is not a deep ball guy at all didn't watch enough film on him, imo.

The problem with Lee's stats (20+ yards) is that he has played with not
particularly strong armed QB's.

Je vois tous les.

"He's gonna be a TE for somebody...and probably a most damn good one. I see....Atlanta trading down to pick Evans."
Demandez et vous recevrez les réponses...

At 6'5" he has good size, but there is the Johnny Football factor....Only if he is there late.

 

[CGI_Ram]

Well, I'm willing to go on record; I don't see "it" with Evans.

I'm no scout, but I'm surprised people glance over his lack of burst. Pro CB's should have little trouble staying step for step with him.

Totally agree,but LB's would struggle covering him as a TE.

 

[Memphis Ram]

Not another route running project.

Then you don't want Sammy Watkins, Mike Evans, or most of the WRs in this draft class.

Like Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffrey, Anquan Boldin, Marques Colston and the like?

Over the years I've learned not to solely rely upon a draft profile from NFL.Com or any site. Almost as many misses as hits.

I'm expressing what I see when watching Evans.

I never said that about those guys.

So you saw burst out of those guys and don't see it out of Evans? I'm just asking.

BTW, I've seen Pro CBs run step for step with the players I listed and they still make play after play after play.

I am not a scout, obviously. I am expressing an opinion about what I've seen of Evans in anticipation of this draft. Particularly since early on there was speculation he could be a target at 13.

I don't like him.

I can't remember what I thought about those guys, but I do remember a member here high on Jeffery and I watched a lot of him because of that. At the time, I tended to agree with his favourable opinion of Jeffery.

The other guys I can't remember what my pre draft opinion was.

Coiencidently He had Jake Matthews blocking which was giving the QB enough time to do this. Give me Mathews @ 2-6 and Evans @ 13 please

 

[Zaphod]

You got that right. I want Matthews or Mack and I'm well aware of their current depth at line backer so Mack is about as likely as a receiver at this point.

Bailey, Austin, Quick and Givens and help on the offensive line is what I want.

 

[CGI_Ram]

A lot of catches with guys draped all over him. Will that fly in the pros?

This is why I doubt his game.

 

[mr.stlouis]

Two BOGUS teams they mean.

Put it this way, if you were betting on it, who do you think will go first, Watkins or Evans?
