| Evan Rodriguez Scouting Report |
| Evan Rodriguez - Temple (HT: 6-1½ - WT: 239) |
Positives -- Versatile player who can line up at fullback, H-Back and tight end... A natural receiver who catches the ball with his hands and doesn't let the ball get into his body... Solid speed and athleticism; great weapon in the
passing game when lined up at H-Back, will chip a defender and run nice routes... Good blocker who attacks his assignment... Good role player potential, the type of guy who can contribute in a variety of ways and will be valuable to a team... Good overall athlete, ran a 4.58-40 at the combine, the fastest of all participating tight ends, and had a 36" vertical leap. Negatives -- Strictly a blocker and receiver, was not utilized at all as a runner, only has one career carry for one yard... A tweener fullback-tight end who doesn't have the height that teams look for in a traditional tight end or the functional strength that teams look for in a traditional lead blocker... Played mostly in the backfield in college but will likely move to tight end at the next level.
