LOL!.   He's a poor man's Josh Allen....

 

NFL.com Overview

It's easy to tell that the Green Bay native favors quarterbacks like Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers when you watch his tape. Unfortunately, while he has similar zip to the Packer legends, he's nowhere near as accurate and lacks any semblance of touch. Morgan is very capable of making impressive throws to all areas of the field, but his violent release and inconsistent footwork hinder functional ball placement and accuracy. His lack of pocket mobility and instincts make him too easy for defensive coordinators to assault with a variety of blitz packages. He's a tough guy with a big arm and the 2018 tape is the one to watch, but QB3 may be his ceiling.

 

Sounds like a good QB to go with Allen to his QB whisperer Palmer.

 

New England has also been talking to him.

Outside of Simmons, Davis probably  has the highest upside of any LB in the draft .  Excellent sideline to sideline speed and he's known for hustle on every play. 

 

Evans is a speed  and track star at the RB position. D Jeremiah  is a big fan of his.

Evans NFL.com draft write up sounds tailor made to compliment Singletary:

 

Overview
 

Slashing outside-zone runner with glide in his stride and ability to run with elusiveness and creativity. Evans is a little undersized and might be viewed as a change-of-pace option, but he appears to have the three-down skill set to handle committee carries. He can run with patience, but has the loose hips and agile feet to plant-and-go in a hurry. He sees the field and does a nice job of setting up and eluding tacklers with lateral cuts or stacked moves. While he's confident in space, Evans lacks the commitment and finishing force to make a living inside the tackles. His third-down and kick-return versatility increases the likelihood that Evans will hear his name called in the middle rounds with a chance to become a solid RB2.

That’s good they need to add both. AJ Klein is older and Gaines/Norman/Levi aren’t the future at CB2

 

Agreed. Now is the time to look at their replacements that we can draft, and develop without having to make them a starter right away.

 

So nice having depth on this roster.

Davis-Gaither, Hall, and Orr are all potential Milano replacements if he doesn’t re-sign. All undersized guys with speed and coverage skills to play WILL. 
 

And as others have said, corner and safety look to be a focus. 

I think Vosean Joseph from last year could also be a potential Milano replacement (hopefully won’t be necessary as I really like Milano on this defense) but I don’t see him in that SAM role. Won’t know much until we see him more.

So he does is best work outside the tackles (whereas Singletary does his best work inside), has the speed (which our HB corps currently lacks) to be a home run threat, AND he can return kicks?

He does indeed sound like a perfect fit for what the Bills are looking for. 

What does everyone think in terms of probable draft round for Evans? 3rd? 4th?
