Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Evans gets off the snap quickly, and Evans is consistently able to generate movement at the point of attack, typically finishing those blocks strong.
  • In the run game, he plays with a mean streak and does a nice job generating a push at the initial point of attack. He can get outside and does a decent job landing blocks in space.
  • Evans will have a chance to develop as a right tackle or possibly inside at guard, where he could be an interesting prospect for a zone-blocking team. If nothing else, that versatility is enough to make him at least a quality reserve.
  • Has good footwork and technique. Balanced and agile pass protection set with excellent hand placement.
  • In the run game, he explodes off the line of scrimmage and consistently gets out to the second level to do damage.
  • Showing some nastiness to his game, he will sustain blocks through the whistle, thriving when he’s in the phone booth.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • His physical gifts were enough to get by against collegiate opponents, but Evans had trouble with bull rushers when facing quality competition, which is potentially a problem in the NFL.
  • Lacks ideal movement skills in the run game. He’ll get to the second level, but he tends to lock on to a path toward his target and then struggles if he has to adjust.
  • Too often is pushed back into the pocket during pass protection becaus~ he bends at the waist rather than at the knees. Relies more on precise angles than physicality in the running game.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
