Does that mean he can participate in all the OTAs? 

Possible, but I would say odds are against him. OTAs will be anywhere between end of May to Mid June and he hasn't been running on his leg in a couple months. He'll need to get his endurance nad strength back and I doubt he'll be fully cleared within just 2 months, but hopefully he'll recover quick.

To add to this. He's running but that doesn't mean he can do cuts, jukes, stopstarts, and other running drills that put pressure on his ankles. Running just means treadmill or strait line the other parts of being a receiver will be a while. So I am positive he won't do much at otas

Well said. 

I would expect him to be brought along slowly.  In shape by training camp would be a good goal.  Working on cuts and routes can come later.

I have a feeling we are going to see a limited amount of Samuel this year. I think he will really be in shape and able to play fast and make all the cuts he needs towards to end of training camp; but with Wright and Byrd here they will get the snaps to start the season with Samuel maybe coming in more mid/late season. I also think year 3 is going to be his big year, full OTA and camp + less competition at the slot spot. 

 

Hopefully I am wrong and he balls out this year; I think this kids got all the potential and drive to be great.

    • Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds. 
    • Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds. 
    • Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
