Chris Olave

Chris Olave was going in the late second or early third round of fantasy drafts the last couple of years. Now he's being drafted as a low-end WR3 and typically coming off the board in the sixth or seventh round. Olave had two 1,000-yard seasons to begin his career before last year's injury-shortened campaign. He's a terrific route-runner with big-time speed. Olave has averaged 2.21 yards per route run for his career, which is excellent.
But people are understandably nervous about his concussion issues and his quarterback situation. It's impossible to quantify the concussion risk, but I'm not terribly concerned about the QB factor. Even the very worst passing attacks in the league typically generate at least 3,000 passing yards, and with the Saints lacking other credible pass catchers, Olave is in line for a sizable chunk of that yardage.

Chris Olave reportedly "looks healthy" to begin practices at OTAs with the Saints.

Fantasy Impact

Olave dealt with concussions last season that limited the number of games he played. He dealt with two different concussions last year which marked his fifth overall in his career. He looks to be fully healthy entering this season.
