C'mon folks....I wouldn't complain if we kept Evans, but he was good off the bench....thats it...a rotation guy who was one dimensional, who had a decent year last year.
I think he was hyped a bit last off-season, and due to the Daniels injury and the failure of Jason Taylor, he obviously became the crowd favorite....especially because he has been with the team for a while.
But why have 2 ends that can't rush the passer.
Daniels is certainly better, and a better teamate....and may even be cheaper.
AND he's got something to prove.
I would much rather have Daniels than Evans for the next 2 years...beyond that, the only advantage is age...

Also,,
Who knows Evans better than anyone?
The Redskins.
If they didn't make any major push to get him, they obviously have other plans at end.

The Skins sign who they want....they didn't sign Evans, therefore, they didn't want him at that pay rate.
