Scrambled draw at home – he considered selection, naturally (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

darwin

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'home he considered selection naturally' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'scrambled draw at' is the wordplay.
'scrambled' is an anagram indicator.
'at' becomes 'in' (synonymous in some cases - eg at school, in school).
'draw' with letters rearranged gives 'darw'.
'darw'+'in'='DARWIN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for darwin that I've seen before include "Author of On the Origin of Species, d.1882" , "Man of note" , "Charles ...... originated the theory of evolution" , "Naturalist, author" , "English naturalist, Charles (1809-82)" .)
