Alex Smith has shown time and again that he will throw to the open receiver, and no one else. Jump balls just aren't his thing, so I'm not sure exactly how useful Evans would be in this offense with this QB. Of course, he also has sick hands, is tall as shit, with gorilla arms.
I don't see how Evans isn't the #1 WR on the board after that combine. It's not like he doesn't have the production to back up the workout numbers.

Agreed, my first thoughts as well
1. How come Evans doesn't get more separation with that speed and quickness? (3 cone a bit slow 7.08)
2. Alex Smith tried to throw some 'jump ball' type passes to our receivers and they failed to win the battle for the ball. Can't blame him for not doing it much. I wouldn't keep throwing it up if i didn't think your guy was going to win.
