From Ourlads where he is listed as their 5th ranked guard.
Three year starter, forty straight games. From Allen, TX. Part of the offensive line that was the recipient of the coveted Joe Moore Award as the top offensive line in college football. Received All-Big 12 honors three consecutive years including second team in 2018. Projects inside due to a lack of length to play on the outside. Plays in a two point stance where he locks out his long arms and steers pass rushers up the field or down inside. Generally blocks one-on-one with little help. Steps down inside to seal any inside pass rush then works the rusher around the QB. Good initial quickness both as a pass protector and run blocker, but is inconsistent as a finisher. Gets a little sloppy in his technique at times on skilled pass rushers and they beat him around the edge. Plays square in pass protection with a good base. Shuffles back and does a nice job on twist pickups. Shows good flexibility. Flashes toughness and explosive play. Works to keep his hands inside the frame. Started two games at RT and last fall played LT. He struggled with his footwork early in the year. Flashes a punch that can stun a pass rusher. Has good lateral agility as a pass protector. Must consciously bend his knees. Eventual starter and likely at guard. (second/third round)

OT Bobby Evans from Oklahoma is the last pick for the #Rams today! He was our 12th ranked OT in the draft this year, 107th on our Top-250 Big Board
The similarities between Bobby Evans and Jahri Evans are crazy. Jahri was a LT in college at a small school and was pick 108 in the draft. Bobby was pick 97 after starting at LT last year for Oklahoma.
Both are 6’4″ and approximately 315 pounds (Jahri was 4 pounds heavier when drafted). Both ran 5.2 40s. 3-cone, 20 yard shuttle are super close with Bobby being a little faster in the shuttle.
Exactly the same vertical jumps.
Kromer started coaching with the Saints as a rb coach in Jahri’s 3rd year after Jahri had already established himself as a starter at guard when he was a rookie. Jahri did make his first pro bowl in ’09 when Kromer became the OL coach for the saints.
This will be an amazing pick if Bobby is anywhere near successful as Jahri.
i like the pick. i think at the very least he sticks at guard.
no stars in this draft, but they’ve picked up solid role players i think.
I think he might beat out Blythe.
