Mike Evans is good. He’s really good. That’s not news, but maybe we don’t quite appreciate how good he is. Pro Football Focus certainly does, though: they named him their 12th best player of all of 2016. Yes, among all positions.
Evans was also PFF’s second-best receiver overall, behind only the untouchable Julio Jones, who unfortunately is in the same division and has to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers twice a year. But Evans is giving him a really good run for his money, and might catch him given enough time.
