Here's what Walter Football has to say on the 4th ranked TE:
- 1/24/11: Rodriguez was Temple's leading receiver this year, catching 35 balls for 479 yards and two touchdowns. He was reasonably consistent this season. Rodriguez is a fluid receiver who picks up yards after the catch. He was used in the same manner that Florida used tight end Aaron Herndandez under former Gators assistant Steve Addazio, the first-year Owls head coach. Rodriguez looked good in that role as he is a quality blocker and good athlete as a receiver. The biggest knock on Rodriguez is a lack of foot speed. He had a quality week at the East-West Shrine.
- 8/19/11: Evan Rodriguez started out his collegiate career at West Virginia before he left for Temple. In 2009, Rodriguez caught 13 passes for 145 yards and three touchdowns. Last year, he recorded 21 receptions for 247 yards and two touchdowns.
