Can Samuel Be A Similar Weapon To Tyreek Hill?

[jimfear]

Curious to hear opinions from Huddlers who are familiar with Samuel. I've seen some comparisons on the interwebs but I didn't watch either player in college so I'm not sure if it's a fair comparison.

[Qu1million]

No

Similar playing and running style for sure but it’s clearly yet to been seen from Samuel yet

Got to actually get him the ball before we can find out.

I watched some of his games before the draft. He is very versatile, but with a few exceptions, he really didn't do as much with the ball in his hands as you might expect given his athleticism.

It might take a year or two for him to really shine.

Samuel was one of the fastest guys in this draft. Tyreke Hill is one of the fastest players I've ever seen in an NFL jersey. Possibly THE fastest. 

[Udogg]

no.  He doesn't have the speed that Tyreke has.  

Tyreke isn't normal fast,  he omgwtf fast.  Samuel is fast in a league where everyone is fast.

Samuel looks more like Tavon Austin than Hill

 

Hill is one of the few players I have ever seen that loses hardly none of his track speed with pads on.

This is exactly why. Both players have incredible raw talent, Reid is a better play caller, without doubt. And KC has a better O-line.

Not on this team, we could HAVE tyreke hill and he'd look like Funchess on this team

No.  

Samuel doesn’t have Hill’s physical tools.

I’ve made the Austin comparsion too.  But Austin still more dynamic.

Samuel will be Tyreek-Hill-Lite... right after we let him go and he signs with the cheifs. Our HC and OC are dog poo. Its almost impossible to get an actual understanding of players skills and their value.

Thanks for all the feedback. I had a feeling Hill was faster and more shifty but as some of you have mentioned it's tough to evaluate given the way Samuel's been used so far (or hasn't been used so far).
