Curtis Samuel, "The Brooklyn Blur"

Recommended Posts

The combine time doesn't match in game-speed but this is sweet:

Curtis Samuel had the 4th fastest 40 time in the last 6 years

1-John Ross 2-Dri Archer 3-JJ Nelson

4.31

The thing is, he's more refined than a Harvin at WR, he's a different type of mold.  

Also--Yeah yeah, combine warrior argument and all, I just think this isn't really being given any light and is an awesome stat.

The crazy thing is how young him and McCaffrey are, both turning 21 shortly before the start of the 2017 season. 

Yeah dude could be a great weapon for us , he'll have to work on becoming a more polished reciever catching and route running wise be he's got Ginn level speed and better hands at this point. Alot of his incompletions seem to not be from him literally dropping good balls, but from JT Barrett airmailing poo all the time , which we will have to hope Cam does not do the same thing to him lol 

He played enough at RB to where he like Gettleman says has pretty damn good YAC ability and runs the ball better than alot of WR after the catch which is exactly what we needed on this team. With him and McCaffrey on the field we could confuse the living poo out of defenses, they can both play WR and RB.

I don't understand how a player can still catch with his body after 3 years of college ball and practice.

Seems common sense that the player and coach would have them rectify that after a year or at most two years of concentrated practice to improve weak areas.

Hopefully he can still be effective body catching or develop his hands here at Carolina.

Yea I'm with ya, but this is VERY common of college players.  I've seen a lot of players go from strict body catchers in college to being able to use their hands to pluck footballs in the NFL. Funchess was one.  100% body catcher in college but even though he hasn't turned into much of a WR yet, at least you can't say he's a body catcher now. He's definitely learned to catch with his hands away from his body. His problem isn't his hands, it's his route running and separation.

    • After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem 
    • You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
    • Three straight first round WRs is straight up Matt Millen poo. Considering the draft capital we have tied up on Bryce after that trade we would basically have spent damn near all of our draft capital in recent years on QB and WR just to put one of the most anemic passing offenses in the league on the field. Clown show poo.
