In English when the adverb even comes before comparative forms it functions as a emphasizer rather than an indication of surprise. So this sentence should actually translate to Senden daha da geç. Or the English translation should be Later even than you. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Even is actually only of the most mysterious words in English and it is quite flexible in terms of where it can go in a sentence. Moving its location though can quite drastically change meaning!
In both of your examples, even should have come earlier. He's even more drunk than me and Even later than you

I tried to add daha but got it wrong. Where do I need to put it? Or is it wrong in this sentence?

No daha in this sentence. Bile takes care of the implied expression more here. (more late than you)

"Senden bile daha geç" diye bir şey yok mu? Bu tip cümlede "daha" seçmeli olduğunu sandım.
