Round 5, Pick 27 (#163) - Mitchell Evans, TE, Notre Dame

Love this pick. I believe he was considered the top or one of the top TE at one point. Injuries probably tanked his stock. He broke his foot in 2022 and tore his acl in 2023 so last season he was just coming off that injury.

 

ND produces a lot of great TE and it looks like at worst he may just be a blocking TE but I think we could see a lot more out of him in a few years.

He stood out in the few ND games I watched, I didn't know about his injury history though. Hopefully he can stay healthy.

foot in 2022

acl in 2023

I still love the pick, its the classic upside late TE pick. 

ND knows how to make NFL ready TEs.

He can block which has become rare for college TEs.

Injuries are part of it.  When I was a freshman, one of the first thing I noticed int he locker room and training room was EVERYONE seemed to have a surgical scar or two.  I didn't.  By the following year, I had a scar from shoulder surgery.  It is not that you are injury prone, it is more about how recovery prone you are.

    • You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful. 
    • Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.
    • On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
