My Take: Prairie Ridge ATH Samson Evans to Iowa
- Thread starter EdgyTim
- Start date
Respectfully disagree. Iowa's putting him at WR and they know what they are doing. Too small to be an every down RB , and you want him on the field as much as possible. Slot WR is perfect for him.
as soon as I finished the video that was my first thought as well...good call.

Epic,
I agree wasn't Dwight like 5'6" and about 160# coming out of HS. Samson is reported to be 6'1" 190# and essentially plays RB now taking many carries a game.

Iowa coaches know what they are doing. His passing game is not on a par with his running game and speed. Deceptively fast and can make the moves to get open. He will be fine at WR.
Did more in the NFL than Dayne or most of those QBs...
Hell, more in college than most of those QBs, too. Unless you consider 1st team All Big-Ten & 2nd team All-American getting "schooled" by Big Ten QBs.
And my bad, I didn't realize Samson was that big, although I think his listing is a tad generous. But I still bet he's a WR, it looks like a natural position for his skill set and Iowa has a big need there.
Not really. Both were pretty average as pros but hard to say MB did more. Dayne had 4 seasons of over 600 yards rushing. MB only had over 50 tackles twice.
MB had a fine college career. If SE can match that then he will be a great get for Iowa. I just happened to be in college at the same time as MB and it seemed like once each week he was getting caught looking into the backfield .
