Roundybout Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Staying at 12 and 22 is looking better, but I still want to go after 4-6. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJB Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I find a lot of Alabama LB lack natural instincts to be honest . I like Leighton more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) I would love this guy at 22. I didn't hear his stock was dropping, anyone know why? His tape is and reel is awesome Edited March 29, 2018 by Alphadawg7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 No more Bama linebackers. There are major questions about Evan's athletically and he hasn't addressed any of them in the process. Frankly I don't think he's anywhere near a fit for what's required from the linebackers in McD's system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K D Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Sounds like he's not very athletic and doesn't want anyone to be able to verify with numbers. Why would that help the Bills? McD's scheme calls for very athletic LB's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His tape is and reel is awesome Rashaan Evans, who did not run the forty at the combine or Alabama’s first pro day did not run yesterday which left a very bad taste in the mouths of teams who purposely made the trip to watch his workout. Several teams questioned Evans speed going into the pre-draft process and the fact he’s not yet run the forty coupled with a vertical jump of just 30 inches and 9-feet-8-inches in the broad jump will raise further red flags about his athleticism.

I've been told on TSW that Roquan, Edmunds and Evans are all Kuechly's. It's going to be tough choosing the All Pro MLB's this year! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow what a mixed bag. Mosely and Hightower =all pro caliber Reggie Ragland= I feel he will turn out to be a pretty good pro in the right system Barron= was drafted as a ss, has thrived as a linebacker for the rams Rolando Mcclain= could have been a dominate linebacker, but too big of a thug Reuben Foster=Could be all pro like mosely, could be a thug like mcclain R. Evans= Who knows. Seems to be a high character guy, so maybe at least he won't go the way of Mcclain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spielman Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Evans is a beast. Someone wants him to drop. I consider him the best all round LB in the draft. Yes, over Smith because he's 10 lbs heavier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just what i read Cool thanks to you and @Yoloinohio for the replies. He looks like he flies all over the field on tape, so little surprised by that part. But admittedly, most my desire for him is based on all the highlights and stuff I watched him more than anything, and of course those dont show missed opportunities. But, for him what I liked was just how many plays there were in his reel, I mean it was a lot more than most peoples and a ton of wow plays and moments. You can never put too much stock into highlights, but his just jumped off the screen so much and was one of the bigger reels I had seen. One thing too...some teams could be spreading distaste for him to try and get his stock to slide they have a shot at getting him later in the first or even early 2nd. Seen that happen a lot too where teams try to spin a negative story to get a better shot at landing a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankoElTanko Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 ^ This. We are looking at more of today's successful linebackers akin to the Derrick Brooks, Shaq Thomspson, Ryan Shazier mold rather than the traditional 4-3 LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between game 1 and the bowl game was night and day. If you're giving me Oregon LVE, I might like him over everyone bar Roquan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
