... i can't really understand why the FO is down on Evans.
I like WalterFootball, but a lot of people operate under the assumption that he's a strong run defender because of his size...but he isn't at all.

He's a decent pass rusher, who can beat weaker blockers, but completely disappears against talented pass protectors.

Thus the 79 rating. He's a really bad fit in a 3-4, but San Francisco doesn't have any idea what they are doing anyway.
