I know that highlight reels are always ‘best of’ but this guy could be the real deal at TE.  Effective blocking inline and great hands across the middle of the field.  He could be starter in year 2.

If he can play like that in preseason he might battle his way into playing this season.

Yes please. He's not just a blocker, her had good hands. Certainly not a speed demon, but if her gets open and doesn't let the first tackler bring him down, he's all right in my book!

Big ND fan here.... Evans can and will block.  Those ND boys won't see the field if they can'r run block.  He's going to be like Will Dissey or Jake Ferguson.  If you keep out three TE's together you will have something cooking.  Sanders is the outlier, pure receiving TE.  TT and Evans are pretty similar that they play a solid all around game.  We got a good one if he can stay healthy

I honestly think the three tight ends we have make a complete group that complements each other enough that we don't need one to be a superstar for the TE room for the position to be of strength against any team.

I was just coming in to say that exact thing.

JT could be our TE1.

Evans could surprise - I may be the most surprised value wise with his pick (along with Scourton).  He has legit all-around Y/F/T usage ability.   Great blocker, great hands, some unexpected shiftiness for his size.

And I've always been a Tremble fan.  He's a great TE2 who has made plays and knows how to block.  He's not a world beater, but he fills his role very well.

    • 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.
