Inspired in part by this thread:

I decided what it might be like if a player like Don Hutson were to be brought into a modern football context..

Excerpt:

However, in any discussion of the best of the best at WR, Don Hutson (see also here and here) has to be in the mix. Back when wide receivers were lucky to get 1 pass a game, he was catching 3 and 4. Back when scoring was difficult, he led the league in scoring 8 times. His YPC is decent but hardly extraordinary. What Don Hutson was — is a ball catching freak, and a scoring freak.
