WATCH: Tampa Bay Bucaneers Rookie WR Mike Evans Pulls in His First NFL Touchdown

When it comes to the former Texas A&M wide receiver Mike Evans the Tampa Bay Buccaneers knew they had something. Yeah, it helped having a guy like Johnny Manziel tossing him the ball (or did he make Johnny loom good?), but at 6'5" and 231 pounds he is the textbook definition of what NFL coaches want in their wide receivers.

It would just take time for him to be able to prove it--which he started doing Saturday against the Buffalo Bills.

Even if he did not burn the hapless defensive back as bad as he did Josh McCown put the ball where only Evans would be able to catch it (kind of easy when your target is a tree). On the day he caught al three balls thrown his way for 44 yards and a touchdown.

Call it a hunch, but the other three teams in the NFC South might want target taller and more athletic defensive backs in the near future. They are going to need to in order to deal with this guy!
