Re: Zach Evans most talented since SJax

I was the draft guy who wasn't high on him.

Because I follow careers.

Before I go on, I'll be much happier to be wrong here than right.

He was the #1 RB coming out of high school with Bijan #2 that year.

He went to TCU and had some good games ... a few little injuries.

After his sophomore year he transferred to Ole Miss.

I can guess because he knew he was losing his job to Kendre Miller, but truly I don't know.

He went to Ole Miss as the starter... decent ypc again (especially early in the schedule) ...
He then was overtaken by freshman sensation Quinshon Judkins who is listed alongside Herschel Walker as far as freshman phenoms for yards.

The guys that took his snaps are starting nfl backs. Rounds 2-3 guys.
But beyond that, they were both tackle breakers with vision.

So ...

What my scouting says, is that he's not going to be getting more than what is blocked ... and he's going down at first contact, maybe second.
And he doesn't run angry.

I hope that ends up being wrong.

The best part of his game is acceleration to beat angles ... where he is special.

If our o line gets him lanes he could have solid games. That's my hope, anyway.
