He has both a very high floor and ceiling which is nice because you can expect plenty of receptions. If Conner's out he's a RB1. glad to see someone that has been watching football over the last few years in this forum. It’s simple, you get the Pitt RB and fire him up every week at a potential high upside RB1 , high RB 2 minimum. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hold on to your Conner without a handcuff, makes absolutely no sense. yea use a 50/50 coin analogy to prove a point about someone who has been injured already in his short NFL career. You Are right, I didn’t have Samuels in all my leagues last year and cash in because of him absolutely balling out. He didn’t win any leagues last year. You are right. 100%. Once again a small sample size to fit your narrative. DJ, Fournette, Cook have all had significant injuries in a short NFL career. No one is saying to hold Conner without a handcuff. All I'm saying is you can't bank on him not finishing the season based on 1 full season's worth of performance. And right, now that's all your basing your bias on.

So he really isn't going off anything right now. I wouldn't say he "swears" he's playing. He stated that if it is actually just a typical AC joint sprain, he "could" play this week. A lot of unknowns still that won't come to light until Friday practice most likely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sSektor 2,297 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Where is Samuels talent-wise? I know he never really had a set position in college and was more of a jack of all trades type player. He's looked pretty good receiving since last year and has ok vision behind the admittedly elite Steelers line. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WaiverLooter 931 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 It just seems like last year when Conner went down, the Steelers threw the ball more and Sanuel’s production was maybe only 70% of Conner’s. Obviously, this year with Rudolph, the offense is more conservative so what will happen with Samuels is anyone’s guess. The plus side is that he did have a 140+ yard rushing game when Conner was out last year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vanquish2073 21 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 He's more appealing in PPR than standard or half imo. Rudolph loves to throw to his backs and Samuels is a pretty good receiver. I would think 4-5 catches is a good bet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
