Nice piece on Evans. We see him week one.
http://www.buffalobills.com/news/news.jsp?news_id=3256The former Badger exploded in his first year in the league, catching 48 passes for 843 yards and nine touchdowns. His average of 17.6 yards per catch was best in the league among rookies, as was his touchdown total as well. That's not too shabby considering some of the other high-profile names drafted in a particularly deep receiver class (Larry Fitzgerald, No. 2 overall to Arizona; Roy Williams, No. 7 overall to Detroit; Reggie Williams, No. 9 overall to Jacksonville; and Michael Clayton, No. 15 to Tampa Bay).
In fact, Evans 17.6 yards per catch average was the best the league has seen from a rookie since 2001 (when Miami's Chris Chambers had an average of 18.4 yards per catch) and the second highest in Bills history (to Elbert Dubenion's 1960 average of 17.9 yards per catch).
