And it's also annoying when straw man backlash gets heaped upon discussions that aren't part of what you're railing against.

Etta-Tawo is a physical specimen.  He's a big, physical receiver who is showing terrific hands this year.  He's bouncing off tackles.  He's beating people deep.  He's making plays in traffic and then showing elusiveness in the open field, while defenders fall down or ineffectually try to pull him down.  When he gets hit at the sideline, people bounce off and he doesn't go down.  His track speed / 40 time are already known.  And he's produced eye popping numbers that will make the NFL take notice.

I never said that he was the "best" [arbitrary distinction] WR in the country, just that he has significantly improved his draft stock.  And given his physical stature, speed, and production--I believe that he will rise up the draft charts once the NFL teams get series about evaluating players after the season ends.

If that is orange colored glasses, then I'm happy to own that.  But I don't think it is in this kid's case.  Have you seen some of the wideouts who've gone in the top 2 rounds of the NFL draft in the past 10 years?  It isn't far fetched--at all--to suggest that AET could go that high.
