In a class full of outstanding rookie wide receivers, the best of the lot might be playing for the Buccaneers.

First-rounder Mike Evans just caught a 56-yard touchdown, giving the Bucs a 27-7 lead at Washington.

Evans has seven catches for 209 yards today, and two touchdowns. For some reason, Washington had a linebacker matched up on him, but at his current pace, few can cover him.

He has seven touchdowns in his last six games, and is emerging as a real bright spot for a team that needs them.
