Recruiting analyst Brian Dohn said that, "He plays with a suddenness to him, is a decisive runner who can hit full stride in just a few steps and he's gone."

"He is a fluid athlete with no wasted motion, can make you miss in the open field and isn't stiff or robotic like you see with some players that are as muscle bound as Samuels."
