Curtis Samuel is dressed for practice

I, forgive me, was watching the ESPN celebrity fantasy draft yesterday. They were talking about CMC. Analyst Louis Riddick , who clearly knew his poo better than anyone else on the network, added that once Curtis Samuel gets healthy, he's going to be a dangerous addition to the offense.

Refreshing to see competence on that channel; though, he easily got the least screen time of anyone.

Samuel may just be the biggest oversight during this entire process. Between the routine hype of Run CMC and the abrupt ascension of Byrd, Samuel has been an afterthought. 

That's a mistake. This is the biggest news of the day. That will become oh so clear in the days ahead.

    • He is "Keep Pounding." https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45498715/nfl-carolina-panthers-chuba-hubbard-olympics-flag-football-track
    • This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one. 
    • I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.
