Heath Evans has been a good fullback for a while now for the Patriots.  He played in 16 games (3 starts) last season for the Patriots and he carried the ball 27 times for 117 yards (4.3 ypc) and he caught 7 passes for 34 yards (4.9 avg) with 1 TD grab.  Evans has now played in 89 games (7 starts) and he has carried the football 112 times for 417 yards (3.7 ypc) and he has also caught 33 passes for 226 yards (6.8 avg) with 1 TD grab.  Converted TE Garrett Mills will back up Evans at fullback.  He did not play a down as a rookie but he likely would be a really good receiver out of the backfield.
