Curtis Samuel - a poor mans Mcaffery

[Biggdaddi1022]

Think the Panthers would consider him , seem to be able to do what McCaffery does if we can't get him.

I like Samuel.

If he's available at the bottom of the 2nd, I wouldn't mind that pick at all.

It would, however, be rolling the dice yet again on another Ohio State WR. :P

He's a poor mans Percy Harvin. He's way more explosive than Mccaffrey 

[tarheelfan23]

maybe a black mans McCaffrey?

What would a rich mans McCaffery look like?

BOTTOM LINE

 Jack-of-all trades but master of none, Samuel showed an ability to gain yardage and create scoring opportunities in a variety of ways on a talented Buckeyes offense. However, NFL teams will want to slot him into a more defined role, which is most likely at receiver. He is still learning the position and has separation quickness to create open throwing lanes, but while he's sharpening his route work, he could find early reps as a kick returner.

I'd like to see this as a day three option in any of the final three rounds if available. You just can't compensate for speed, and we need it BADLY on offense. Size is great but continuing to add guys with game breaking potential is a must.

Curtis Samuel did run a great 40 time but I think he is a project and is not really good at anything right now. Maybe can setup a few bang plays for him like Ty Hill in KC.

Samuel, ArDarius Stewart and Taywan Taylor are three slot types that could be productive in this offense.  I'd be game but not at the top of the 2nd with the potential talent available.

Talented guy but he has no true position. More of a gadget player.

But are we searching for love?
