How electric of an athlete is Braxton Miller? I'll put it like this: It took him all but two practices to go from "intriguing project" to one of the clear cut winners of Senior Bowl week.
Miller's showcased preternatural pass-catching ability and devastating elusiveness on the outside. He's even showcased his abilities as a punt returner.
And according to longtime NFL Draft analyst Tony Pauline, the New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Kansas City Chiefs—three playoff teams—view the former Ohio State dynamo worthy of a second-round selection.
"Get your rank up," Braxton Miller yells at Eric Murray after burning him.

CBS draft analyst Dane Brugler added Braxton Miller has done nothing to dissuade him of his belief Miller could go as high as the first round. Rotowire concurred.
For anybody else this ascent would be storybook, but it's not shocking to anybody who followed Miller's career in Columbus. It is, however, a testament to Miller's grind as he's done this without the NFL Combine, an event that should provide reams of statistical data on his alien athletic ability.
