What's the confidence level in Samuel right now?

[Rags]

he was a big part of our offense las season along with CMC and D.J. Moore.

He and D.J. Moore got better. CMC is still CMC. Ian looks to have improved. Greg is healthy earlier and seems to be stable all camp. 

We have WR depth. O-line should at worst be "pretty okay" when healthy. 

Samuel looks like a  betterTed Ginn. Cam had some of his best years with Ted Ginn. If Curtis can at bear minimum put up a floor Ted Ginn season (averaging about 45 catches, 682 yards, 6 TDs a season his 3 seasons here for us) he'll be a major boon alongside everything else we have. That's not even counting what Samuel can do as a runner for us sometimes. 

You can be hype and be realistic at the same time. Curtis previous experiences current camp and chemistry with Cam you can absolutely do both.

I just hope he stays healthy. I never buy into training camp hype

The “loss” of Funchess is addition by subtraction for Samuel. He’s going to have to have a big year if we want to be successful. I think he will.

Reminds me of the X-Clown grab.

I keep remembering # 59 saying to some effect " curtis seems to score when he has the ball in his hands".....I'm hanging on to that.

I remember that too.  I believe it was "Why can't we give the ball to Curtis on every play, all he does is score touchdowns"

[Joe the Show]

So from the feedback so far, I'm thinking the correct approach is cautious optimism, with a dash of hope for greatness.

Difference is that Curtis isn't parked behind a vet.

He had opportunities to un park his self.   Just didn't do it.

So true.  RPO screens/drags and comebacks feel like I'm stealing.    Keep getting people asking.." who the $#$$ is Curtis Samuel.  Is he even on the team? " ... I giggle.

I'm drafting him in every fantasy league I'm in this year level of confidence.

Mid-late round pick, always available, He's a sleeper.

I was wondering the other day on who should go first. DJ or Samuel? Pretty sure it's DJ but either way I see both guys shooting up the draft board and going earlier than expected when the time comes.
