Brooklyn's Finest: Curtis Samuel @ 23?

uncledave : 4/27/2017 12:46 am
Here's a guy 5'11 196lbs that ran a lasered 4.31 at the combine, overshadowed gloriously by Mr. Ross. Does 18 reps of 225 with a 37 vert. This draft is lame on O-Line, so good, I'll take a guy who out runs everyone on the field.

There are NOT players this dynamic that come around every day. He lines up as a RB, Eli doesn't like a dive play call they've got dialed up, or notices a hole in coverage to better exploit, he can check the kid down to a WR and Curtis will ghost em' everyday of the week. Concern yourself with OBJ, BMarsh, & Sterling... to contend with Curtis Samuel as well, that'll spread a defense out, or at least
inevitably burn it out.

"Samuel was the Buckeyes' best offensive player in 2016. Playing a hybrid receiver-running back position, the junior had 1,636 yards from scrimmage and 15 touchdowns. He was the only player in the country to have at least 700 yards rushing (771) and 800 receiving (865). He was a first-team All-America all-purpose player." - AP Sports

high character guy, great young presence yearning to be sculpted, a leader who can build up those around him and make them better. Check out this barrage interview after his proday below.

But if he is around in the second which I doubt then he should be in the conversation. My buddy had him as a student and raves about the kid as a person.
