Player quality
Why this DVS moved off a raw projection.
Process ×0.99
Process residual (not a second production percentile).
Versatility ×1.02
Light floor from multi-role usage (rush+receive or dual-threat).
Org environment ×1.01
Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Quick answer
Buy lowSamuel caught 72 passes for 727 yards in 2025, finishing WR27. He scored 6% more than his touches said he should. Signed a 1-year contract with SF on 7/30/26. 2026 looks more like a flex than a locked starter. That's a buy-low window if the price still reflects the rough year, not the recovery.
