    Definitley a playmaker fo sho'. Leads in points scored by a non-kicker rookie, and reception average. Good stuff.

    The thing that's really impressing me about Evans is he seems to catch the ball when it's around him. He looks like a receiver the QB can have a lot of confidence in to make tough plays when they come in his direction.

      Evans looks great right now. It puzzled me earlier in the season why he wasn't getting more balls thrown to him and it reflects in the stats vs. other rookie WRs.

            I think the broadcaster said like 21 of his 25 receptions going into the game yesterday were for first downs.

              Buffalo's approach with Evans was cautious. He did not get a lot of playing time or balls thrown his way early on. Myabe the Bills had a good reason, maybe not, but I'm guessing some of the other receivers on that list had more chances earlier to have more receptions and total yardage to this point.
              I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

              I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                Evans Yds/Rec and TD totals are impressive.. If he ends up with 900 yds and continues to score TD's on Bombs from Bledsoe, his #s will put him into ROY contention. 900 yds - 10 Tds -15.9 yds/rec.

                  He was having trouble getting open. I remember hearing something about him having trouble dealing with the Bump and Run, and gettting off the LOS. Normally, this is the biggest area of adjustment for rookie WR's. I feel like Evans has definately turned the corner on this issue and is getting open more and more.

                  His combination of lightning speed and incredible hands are gonna make him a great one. my favourite part of the pre-draft scouting reports talked about his "ability to go up and take the ball away from defenders, his speed, hands instincts and leaping ability aside, he simply wants it more."

                  LOVED the pick.

                    There was a story about Troy Vincent working with him after practice on technique to shed DBs.

                        His numbers are only going to increase w/ weaker competition over the last strech of games. I love the guy. He is more than I thought he would be, tremendous upside. With McGahee, Evans, Euhus, and maybe Losman we got a pretty good young offensive nucleus.
