Through two seasons, Chris Olave has displayed the traits and had the peripheral metrics of someone who can be an elite fantasy option. Unfortunately, Olave hasn't been able to put all the pieces together thus far.
Last season, he proved to be a target earner and saw the high-value targets that lead to fantasy production. He ranked 17th in target share, 12th in total targets, 6th in air yards, and 4th in deep targets.
There is hope that Olave will be in line to see a larger number of "layup targets" that bump his catch rate in Kubiak's offense. Easy receptions are likely the key to unlocking Olave and pushing him into the upper tier of fantasy receivers along with more trips to the endzone. Olave has just 9 TDs over his first two seasons.
Given his age, performance through two seasons, and position as the clear top option in New Orleans, betting on Olave to put it all together in year three is a good idea. He's a solid WR2 in most formats with WR1 upside.

 Rashid Shaheed to have meniscus surgery on knee
Out multiple weeks

FFToday's Take: The Saints are set to be without Chris Olave (concussion) and Shaheed in Week 7 when the host the Broncos. Depending on how the procedure goes, Shaheed could miss the rest of the season. The Saints season is circling the drain as they have now sustained injuries to three of their top four players on offense including QB Derek Carr (oblique). Bub Means, Cedrick Wilson and Mason Tipton are expected to be the top three receivers for Saints on Thursday.
