I was pretty vocal about letting Evans handle the role last year in Daniels absence...which did ultimately happen, but not before we threw a second rounder at Jason Taylor.

After seeing a whole year of him, I think we'd be best off not extending his deal. He's really bad against the run when you consider his size. He's a good enough pass rusher to dominate the weaker offensive lineman he goes up against, but he's a total non factor against top competition. Most of his production comes from a handful of games.

His versatility is a plus, but we're not at a shortage of DL players, so I wouldn't offer him a contract right now. I'm happy we got to see enough of him to make this judgment though, otherwise, we would have just been guessing in the dark about his future right now.

We could do worse at LE than him, but I'd take one more year of Daniels over Evans. Plus, Taylor is going to line up there in specific packages anyway, so we already don't have an every down end.
