This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Olave for two firsts?

Postby fleaflickerchamp » Tue Aug 15, 2023 3:19 pm

Got offered a 2024 and 2025 first for Olave. On the surface feels like good value but the guy came in third last year and would be starting Hurts, fields, Mixon, Swift, JJ ,CD, Olave, Jeudy, hopkins, and Hock so I imagine that they will both be late rounders and it would also make my best WR left Juju.

Olave unless at least one 1st is a near lock to be early.

Olave >> 2 unknown likely late future picks, so you can HOPE that one of them turns out to be the "next" Olave. And even more so considering the rest of your WR group. So unless you wanna tank this year, keep him.

Olave. And on a deal like this I am not playing the speculation game about where the picks might fall.

I'd rather have Olave here over picks. And with one pick 2 years out and both most likely being late firsts.

Olave is better than two late 1sts, easily
I am just a guy sharing some thoughts

I take the two 1sts assuming they are for your league posted.

10 team 2 QB league, even late 1sts will have good value.

I will say that I am lower than consensus on Olave.
I sold both of my Olave shares this off-season, as I cannot imagine his value ever going higher than it is right now.

I am betting on the advanced metrics which show that he currently has elite opportunity numbers, but I struggle to believe that Saints will continue to try to fill WR slots with old players like MT and Jarvis Landry. I think eventually target competition will find it's way to New Orleans.

Olave's weaker numbers in productivity and efficiency are what concern me long run, especially if the Saints ever draft themselves another WR, as I expect them to do, and/or replace Kamara with another receiving RB.
