Twitter reacts to Tennessee Titans selecting RB Darrynton Evans

Derrick and Darrynton — can you dig it?

Well, you’ll have to now that the Tennessee Titans have found the complement for star running back Derrick Henry.

The team selected App State rusher Darrynton Evans with the No. 93 overall pick in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

Here’s a look at what Twitter had to say about the selection.

#Titans adding the lightning to Henry’s thunder with Darrynton Evans out of Appalachian State. Second fastest back in the draft with a 4.41 forty. Played in an outside zone heavy scheme for a great small program in App State. Good pass catcher. Great fit.pic.twitter.com/Ev0KlymkAN

This is a pick that can totally transform the #Titans offense and take it to a new level. Adds another dimension that was previously missing.

And there's the intended Derrick Henry complement. It will be Derrick and Darrynton. And from now until someone else signs Jadeveon Clowney, I've got the Titans signing Jadeveon Clowney.

Here is @gregcosell’s evaluation of new @Titans RB Darrynton Evans.

Another great #NFLDraft get for the #Titans. Darrynton Evans starred on the field and at the combine.

Evans is the only player in a generation with 1,400 rush yards, 18 rushing TDs, five receiving TDs + KR for a score in a season. Also ran 4.41.

I just read @dpbrugler write-up in @TheAthletic NFL Draft Guide. Sounds like Darrynton Evans is a young, health, not terrible version of Dion Lewis, and he probably hasn’t blocked all of Nashville on Twitter yet.

After the Titans took LSU cornerback Kristian Fulton in the second round and Evans in the third, the team has four picks remaining in the 2020 NFL Draft, with one in the fifth and three in the seventh.

No matter what happens on Day 3, Titans general manager Jon Robinson had a great Day 2.
