I am glad you at least got to the point where you admit he could be a third down back, not just a slot receiver. You don’t see those other dozen slots receivers being down backs. That is a step forward. Samuel was the best player on the field in his time at college and showed flashes of the same early on in NFL career. Then, for whatever…

Well, your initial point, Josh, was that he could become another Christian McCaffrey.
Yes, Samuel could be a third down back. In fact, has been, some. I believe that's why the then-Skins gave him that big contract, so he could line up in the slot on 1st+2nd down, then in the backfield on passing 3rd downs.
My understanding is that the now-Commanders stopped doing that due to injury concerns. Which Samuel has dealt with. The dual job was too much for him health-wise.
The injury thing could also be set up McCaffrey. It is funny how both of them have been relatively healthy – you know, for NFL players – as soon as they left the Panthers. I think that says a lot about the Panthers training staff. my total point here is that I believe Samuel could be used effectively in a McCaffrey sort of role. I am not saying he would be a Hall of Famer like McCaffrey clearly is going to be but he could be very much more than he is right now. He just has not had the opportunity
Actually, Samuel was relatively healthy as a Panther. It was his first year with the then-Skins that he missed just about the whole season (I blame Daniel Snyder; I like doing that. Well, liked, I'm happy to now say).
Lol. Curtis was hurt a lot as a panther. And McCaffrey lost at least a couple seasons put together due to injuries in Carolina. speaking of Snyder, the Panthers have the new version of him, looks like. I am very sad
