![]() ![]() I really hope his career continues on this path. Mike is a great player and better person. Admittedly, he is great at avoiding big hits (at the expense of his YAC), but Mike is a bigger receiver - age and injuries usually catch those guys sooner. At 28 years old (29 in August), it seems attainable if injuries and age don’t derail him. Taking all of that into account, I’d say that 3-4 more solid seasons would earn him very serious consideration. Mike’s unique stat of 8 straight seasons (and counting) of 1k yards to start a career is a nice feather in his cap. A ton of the guys never even won one (Moss, Fitz, and T.O. Mike’s four Pro Bowls is a good start, but he will need at least two more to be comparable to other HoF WRs. Competition for AP at WR is notoriously tough. While he does not have any 1st team All Pros, there are other HoF WRs that either have one or none. If he hits 1k receptions, that would make him nearly a lock. Receptions seem to carry less weight, but he still needs to break 800 to be respectable. ![]() It would also put him in the top 10 all time for receiving TDs. He will need to hit 100 TDs, which is a huge, round number that would look great to the HoF voters. If he breaks 14k, that would make him nearly a lock. Mike will need to crack 13k yards to have a good shot, putting him in the top 20 all time in receiving yards. I wanted to see how he holds up and what he needs to do to make the cut. To entertain myself (and maybe others), I did some research on Mike Evans’ stats and compared them to Hall of Fame WRs. ![]()
