Evans is arguably the second best linebacker in this draft class, just behind Butkus Award Winner, Roquan Smith (Georgia). A long, rangy defender, Evans exhibits the play speed and tenacity that would be a welcomed sight in the Charger’s linebacking corps. After posting 66 total tackles on the season (second on the team), 17.5 tackles for loss (led the team), and six sacks (second), Evans possesses a plethora of skills, including a very effective spin move, which he used to stand out on the #1 defense that is already chalk-full of NFL talent.
