I'm not saying Evans couldn't have done anything, but let's not get carried away and act like every back up who stepped into a starting role became an All-Pro.

I know it goes both ways. But Evans has been here for some time now. He's been a solid player here for 4-5 years? He is capable of starting. We're not talking about a camp scrub. Giving up a 2nd round pick for a guy that's probably going to be here for one year when we've got age all over the place is just stupid. If we were a Super Bowl conteding type of team then I'd be OK with it. But let's be honest. We're not that type of team right now.
