WATCH: NFL analyst Brian Baldinger breaks down what makes Deebo Samuel so great
South Carolina WR Deebo Samuel probably isn’t going to be a first-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft this month, but whatever team gets him could be getting a steal.
Samuel is a speedy wide receiver and an elite return man, so he’ll be able to contribute for whatever team drafts him from Day 1.
On Tuesday, NFL Network analyst Brian Baldinger took a long look at Samuel’s game, and it’s safe to say he’s impressed with what he saw:
.@GamecockFB @Uno_Captain is as good as any WR in this draft class. Can beat you inside, outside, on fly sweeps and can make a house call on a kick-off. Knows how to get open and can find the lanes for the QB to find. 1/32 is going to get a great pro prospect. #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/3kIZos2fVu

Baldinger specifically notes how Samuel’s speed allows him to get into NFL-type routes, which is a good thing to hear for the ex-Gamecock.
Where will Samuel go in the draft? We’ll find out by the end of the month, but Samuel will hope a lot of teams see Baldinger’s video.
