Draft Scouting Report:
Rating: 72.40 (Chance to start)
Pro Comparison: Rex Burkhead
Summary:
Evan Hull is a bouncy, do-everything RB who was the run-pass game focal point of his offense in college. He catches it so naturally: arms-extended, taking contact, down the field, doesn't matter. He has multiple-cut ability and plus vision, between the tackles or on the perimeter. He has decent juice and tested like a high-caliber athlete at a solid size. He's not overly elusive with premier contact balance and doesn't play with the long speed he showcased at the combine. His resume as a high-volume receiver is fascinating. He's a complete RB with good and at times great but not elite on-field traits.

Weaknesses:

- Long speed lacks
