Even when he started putting up good weeks, Samuel wasn't getting hyped much. People saw that monster week Moore had and he got the attention.
Samuel probably won't see as many deep balls as he did last season, but his efficiency might improve if he's used on quicker, high-percentage throws.Samuel, who caught two passes for 13 yards in Sunday's 42-10 loss to the Saints, finishes up the 2019 season with 54 receptions (on 105 targets) for 627 yards and six touchdowns. You can be concerned about camvp’s shoulder but even if hes replaced CS is still better than Moore and a steal at his current adp Moore's stock will likely continue to rise in the coming weeks after we get into August but I would rather have Samuel later as he could end up being the most productive Panthers wr when all is said and done. New offensive coordinator Joe Brady was part of a record-setting spread attack at LSU last year, and the Panthers don't have much at tight end behind Ian Thomas. As it stands now, I'd rather take Samuel in round 12 than DJ Moore in round 5. I'm wary of investing a pick, even a late one, on any skill position player with a heart condition for obvious reasons.
I wouldn't mind him as a WR4, but I don't see the upside to really like him. All things considered and with the injury risk, I think that Samuel should be no higher than a 7th round pick in 12 team leagues this coming season. Ankle fracture, back sprain, hamstring sprain, heart condition. No upside there? - You seem to put a lot of stock into last season's small sample size. Even if you think Samuel is better, Moore will be heavily influenced to be more involved. We can't assume he'll be as good or better than last year with little evidence, and his catch rate of 60% wasn't exactly incredible. He still put up double digit PPR points in both Cam-less weeks at the end of the season for what little that's worth.. His receiving grade went from 54 to 75 in a year. ADP agrees with me and not you, so my statement wasn't abnormal. History shows that GMs like to utilize players they have put their own stock into to prove they're good at their job. Even if you think Samuel is better, Moore will be heavily influenced to be more involved. Moore should be the #1 wr if a #1 type wr is signed), Samuel would be on the borderline of being drafted as the #3 wr for Carolina and with his injury history. He didn’t play over 40 snaps until week 12! History shows that GMs like to utilize players they have put their own stock into to prove they're good at their job. There's also excellent value at RB still on the board at that point in players like Carson and Cohen. I would much rather take a later round flier on Samuel, or hell, even a guy like Sterling Shepard. Cats out of the bag and I like him more than most players at that range. Heading into the final year of his rookie deal, Samuel will aim for more consistency in 2020, as he totaled under 40 receiving yards in seven of the last eight games. Samuel was more of a project, and not someone on many people's radar last offseason, in large part because of the injuries. And a waiver-wire option week 3 if one is honest. ADP agrees with me and not you, so my statement wasn't abnormal. Also, the kid is in the 94th percentile in the league in terms of success against man and press coverage... The team hasn't indicated that Samuel's snaps will be limited by the injury, but the knee issue further muddles his already cloudy fantasy outlook. If Samuel isn't drafted and is a free agent then I would possibly try to add him but that probably won't happen.
- Curtis Samuel was not drafted by the current GM. I don't know why you're being sarcastically rude. - You seem to put a lot of stock into last season's small sample size. and he has mostly been injured as a pro. - Cam doesn't tend to produce WR1s. For example, he could've been targeted more because of matchups/game plan, and he has to stay on the field to show us more volume. You can post now and register later. The last 7 weeks, he got 7 targets a game, though some weeks were high and others low. and he was If CS is raw Moore is still mooing The addition of Anderson suggests new OC Joe Brady wants Bridgewater to take more deep shots in Carolina, likely operating an offense centered around three-wide formations.
ALSO, Devin Funchess is gone which opens up 100 targets in that offense.
Baring an unforeseen increase in route running capabilities, I doubt Moore is the wr1 for us in real life or fantasy. Masses just know Moore was a first round pick and think he’s the wr1. Samuel had drawn between four and seven targets in each of his past seven games, but it's unclear how much involvement he'll retain in the passing game with a new quarterback -- rookie third-round pick Will Grier -- making his first career start in place of the struggling Kyle Allen.One player Matt Rhule is interested in seeing all he can do is wide receiver Curtis Samuel. You’ll also see that he’s pretty deadly with those end arounds (so is Moore) He'd like to see Samuel… https://t.co/5t5GjDT8kZLook for Curtis Samuel to play outside, in the slot and even some at running back for the Panthers.Matt Rhule says KK Short is in fantastic shape. Moore and McCaffrey will eat up most of the valuable touches in this offense, while Olsen/Samuel/Thomas split the leftovers and take turns having decent weeks.
