Prospects Comments
NFL - Some may see Samuels as a valuable hybrid talent, while others may see a player who offers roster flexibility but lacks a position where he can win consistently. Samuels isn't a tight end and has to prove he can handle blocking duties well enough to be a fullback. He will, however, appeal to teams looking to disguise their attacks with more diversified personnel groupings. Samuels best fit may be with a zone-scheme team as a RB/FB with the ability to play slot receiver and become a core special teamer.

CBS - Multiple-role offensive skill-position player. Size a running back. Had H-back duties at NC State. Has run a variety of routes. Above-average but not spectacular elusiveness and burst into the second level. Very smart, balanced runner. Reliable hands, especially in traffic over the middle.

DLF: PROJECTED ROOKIE DRAFT RANGE    Even now, Samuels can be had for a fourth-round rookie pick in most formats according to current Rookie Dynasty ADP. He is the perfect high upside player to take a chance on for the level investment required. Don’t waste any more time. Acquire this potential stud-in-the-making while you can.
