The more I see of this, the more I believe that Rhule and Brady will take Jeudy or Lamb

As long as it’s a trade back and we pick up an additional 2nd to help the defense with the rest of the draft I’m all for it. We need to go 90 percent defense in this draft

Yeah, my brother in law lives in Columbus--an OSU grad and season ticket holder---he told me that Samuel was raw and not even a good fit there.

Juju, Kupp, Godwin, Golladay, Westbrook were all taken after Samuel.

I’m all up for trading back but it’s harder than you think it is. And, if you have the guy you really like high on your board. Just take him.

If we trade Samuel, we will drsft a WR in the 3rd

Samuel's "so-so" career so far can be attributed pretty much to injured Cam, injured Cam, rookie gunslinger, rookie bench warmer, rookie gunslinger... weak O-line, weaker O-line, devastated O-line.

I wouldn't be ready to sign off on him going elsewhere. There's a lot of potential that has yet to be unveiled.

You hope, but he really fell flat after being touted as the camp mvp last season. DJ showed much more promise throughout last season

90%? We have 8 picks in 7 rounds. 7 defenders divided by 8 picks = .875%. Man, we can’t even draft 1 offensive player. Jk

But why take a WR so high in what is one of the deepest WR draft classes in possibly decades? Especially with a gaping hole at DT and CB? We can talk about finding talent at DT in later rounds all we want, but the fact remains that the fall off at DT and CB is a lot sooner than WR in this class.

I’m just talking as a fan. I don’t have a clue what’s going on in Rhule’s $60 mil mind.

I’d be totally fine with one offensive player (preferably a guard) and going defense with all other picks.

In chess it is called ‘swapping queens’.  If Samuel will be the third or fourth option and you have a glaring hole at CB, you might trade him for a second or high third IF you think this class is exceptionally strong at CB or fill in the blank with another position of need.  We have many holes to fill.  JMO and your mileage may vary.

Man our WR drafting has been rough. Dj has done fine buts he the epitome of a #2. Sad to say, we actually need to draft a legit #1, despite all the capital already tied up there.

Yeah I want to see what Joe Brady can do with him and a healthy QB.

FIFY.  Yeah, I definitely agree.  Cam had a deep ball arm, but wasn't all that accurate and Allen's accuracy was lacking beyond dump off range.  Samuel's best attribute is initially beating his man, tuning on the jets and creating separation.  That does no good when the intended pass well off the mark.

Don't know what Samuel did to some of you but he has speed for days and did well with the ball in his hands. He is only 23 and yes is a#2 WR or good slot guy, he is just getting to the year where the light comes on..
