Chris Olave Shows Out In Week 2

New Orleans Saints receiver Chris Olave paced the team in receiving yards and targets in the Week 2 win over Carolina on Monday night. Olave grabbed six receptions for 86 yards, including a very impressive 42-yard snag as he was falling to the ground. His 32% target share was very encouraging to see, although Olave may struggle to score touchdowns again this season due to the slow pace of the New Orleans offense.

Chris Olave - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave will look to build off of his strong Week 1 performance on Monday Night Football against the Carolina Panthers this week. Carolina's top cornerback, Jaycee Horn (hamstring), is out for the game which should allow Olave free reign to make some noise yet again. Carolina has a solid secondary even without Horn, but New Orleans also has a plethora of weapons and Olave's route running ability allowed him to deliver a massive Week 1 (8-112). Line Olave up as a low-end WR1 again this week.

The 23-year-old Ohio State product has reportedly built chemistry with new quarterback Derek Carr and projects to be the go-to receiver in the New Orleans offense. Being a second or third round fantasy pick this season, Olave is a no-brainer set and forget. He should be targeted often against Tennessee and should make the most of his targets given his rookie year efficiencies with lesser quarterbacks.

Offseason In Review: New Orleans Saints

After one of the most stable QB periods in NFL history, the Saints spent the past two seasons on a lower tier. While the Saints’ post-Drew Brees run of quarterbacks did not receive the attention the Broncos’ batch of failed Peyton Manning successor efforts did, New Orleans immediately regressed to a midlevel operation once Brees […]
