I'm pretty sure he plays RE. I remember him going against Alex Boone when they played Ohio State. He did'nt look to good in that game from what I remember.

On top of that the taxes in California are backbreaking plus the values of homes are about 3 to 4 times more then they are in other parts of the country. For example a house in Ashburn might cost Evans $500,000. In California, especially San Francisco, that same home will cost him about $1.5 million. Basically if the offers are similar he would do best to stay put.

Let's see sales tax in SF and the Peninsula is 8.25% soon to be 9.25% due to state budget crisis, car registration is going to double. Housing is expensive but prices have dropped about 30-40%, thank god they repealed the extra $0.12 Cents a gallon tax that was on the original budget. Public schools suck, not like the one I attended in Rockville back in the 70's. There's a lot of negatives, but at the same lots of nice things. If he's single, he'll love it, more chicks for guys due to gay population.

Evans has signed with 49ers, PFT reports, for what it's worth.

[MTK]

Damn, guess we're stuck with Daniels.

[The Goat]

Uhhhhhhhhhh. Lame.

[WaldSkins]

Can we now change this thread to "Say Goodbye To Evans"

So what's the verdict... mistake by the FO in balking at the Taylor decision so that we lost control of the Evans situation? Or were we just half-hearted on the Evans deal no matter what?

[MTK]

Seems to me there wasn't much interest in Evans right from the start.

Actually now that you mention it the housing thing might be a wash as even though he'll have trouble selling it the fact remains that it's also easy to buy but I still stand by the statement of house values being 3-4 times higher in California.

As for the single thing well theres a saying that even when NFL players are married they're still single. Antonio Pierce told me that one. By all accounts though Evans is married so it's not to much of a selling point for him.

Ironically though not being able to wear 92 is a huge selling point for Evans.
Evans Pays His Respects To a Long-Lost Friend

I'm surprised though. How do you know so much about California?

[John Denny]

Evans has been solid for us. And I predict he'll thrive rushing the passer (at DE or DT) with Haynesworth attracting a lot of attention.

[GTripp0012]

Ugh, 2 for 3.8. That's Hackett-esque.

On a totally unrelated note, lets spend that money on DJ Hackett.

Why is Igor still unsigned and is there any chance we go after him?

PFT is inadmissable here on the Warpath and should only be used to evaluate what leads should be followed.

Like I mentioned on another thread. If you haven't heard anything by now then chances are nothing's going to happen on the "player x" front.
