I understand what you mean, it does get tiring to hear about OBJ all the time, but he did have a stellar year.  He is well respected and is not a trouble maker, so all in all it isn't the worst.  I would like them to talk about other players that deserve mentioning from time to time.  At least it's not Manziel 24/7 anymore.

After the rookie season he had I have no problem with him. Especially after making what some are saying the best catch ever. I really cant say if it was the greatest ever but it sure is in the top three of all time IMO. Give the guy his kudos.

Is anyone else tired of seeing this guy?

Honestly, the NFL is eating, sleeping, and breathing OBJ right now.

Hope some cornerbacks show him up next year.

 

:rant:

Why? He's about to be a great player....

I love to see receiving talent come in...and he's gifted. The networks make a lot of him but he plays in NYC.

The kid is fantastic. I wish he wore a horseshoe on his head every Sunday. He isn't a star in the making, he is already there

I'd say the OBJ is the exact kind of player they should be talking about. He's not especially cocky or vulgar, he doesn't have off-the-field issues, and he seems to be a star in the making. It's certainly a nice break from some of the players we've had to talk about in the recent past: TO, Randy Moss, Ray Rice, Tom Brady, etc etc.

He had one of the best rookie seasons ever, he's going to get attention. He entertaining without being cocky or arrogant (hopefully that stays the same with all the love he's getting). I don't mind one bit if the media wants to show these kinds of players

I can't hate on the guy- do you literally just hate him because ESPN brings him up too much? He had 1300 yards and 12 TDs in 11 games. That'll get you talked about. I love the guy because he's great.

Does it deserve to be talked about? Yes, most definitely.

Does it deserve to be pushed down our throats for 8 months of the year? No, not at all.

 

Seriously, I don't care if he posts a Instagram video for Lebron James buzzer beater, so please don't play it 1000 times ESPN it's not that hard!

I don't see Antonio Brown, Aaron Rodgers, or Jamaal Charles getting this attention

They're known commodities at this point. Odell just broke onto the scene, as a rookie, who missed several games and still killed it.

Never had a problem him until reading the report just now on NFL.com about him saying NFL players should be making more money.  That's ludicrous imo.  I do get where he's coming from in that NFL players probably should make more than NBA or MLB players due to the violence of the sport, but none of them should make more than they currently are..imo.

I don't necessarily agree with him, but I understand what he's saying. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/05/15/odell-beckham-jr-nfl-pay_n_7290492.html

 

What irritates me is the duplicity from NFL players. On one hand: "The game is violent and we should be better compensated and more taken care of." On the other hand: "Why do they keep changing the rules for player safety? They're ruining the game!"
