02Scheme fit
Ideal system
Evan Hull fits best in an NFL offense that prioritizes a strong-side run game, heavy play-action, with shotgun and frequent check-downs.
Boundary X-receiverslot wrZ-receiver
Best role
As a rookie, Hull projects as a core special teamer who can rotate in on passing downs, with a ceiling as an every-down back who can generate explosive plays through the air and on the ground.
Wrong fit
A downhill, between-the-tackles run scheme that doesn't feature passing to the running back would diminish his value.
Hull's diverse skill set as a back and receiver will allow him to contribute to an NFL offense early in his career.
