Chris Olave has three consecutive consistent years of production. He is the all-time leader in receiving touchdowns in Ohio State history.

Im with Olave because he has better ball control on the run. Wilson kept jumping to catch the ball at the combine which shows he doesnt have as fluid hips as Olave. We have McLaurin who will teach him how to be more effective. Watch out for the Command.

[@jamie-ou8xv]

They’re both gonna be great but everyone around the time of the draft is gonna find every little thing they can dream up to nit pick. Both of these guys were touchdown machines and always wide open their whole careers. I mean look at McLaurin, he was a 3rd rounder that no one thought was gonna put out the production he has. Look at Michael Thomas, he was a 2nd rounder and has been a 2 time pro bowler. Most of the receivers drafted before those guys in their respected drafts aren’t even in the league anymore

This is a great breakdown. Wilson to me is a better stefon diggs prospect. Olave is a less physical DJ moore. Yes I went to Maryland but I think they are fair comparisons. I am a jets fan and really want them to take Wilson at 4. He is perfect for todays NFL and the jets offense. the one thing you didn’t mention is his redzone jump ball ability in space. Would give us a true legit WR group and gives Zach Wilson the best chance to succeed.

[@chrislangstaff]

Good vid. So many first/second round receivers this year that are good at a couple things, and also having a glaring weakness. At least half these guys will be busts because the team that drafts them won't take advantage of what they do well, and try to make them into something they are not.

Another excellent breakdown and I love the player-vs.-player concept! I personally have Wilson higher as well (as my WR3), but as you mentioned, Olave presents the profile of a great Z in a vertically oriented passing attack. What I didn't see as much was not being able to snap off routes back towards the QB, especially looking at some of the nasty comebacks he ran. Both have first-round grades from me, along with London, Williams & Burks. How would you personally stack them all up?

[@AlexRollinsNFL]

Thanks brother! Sounds like we agree on Olave. I haven't given the rest of them enough time to provide a complete scouting report, but I love what I see out of London and Burks

[@Mokuteke]

If you don’t have Wilson as the #1 or 2 your rankings are flawed your either betting on the big body London who has lack luster route running and terrible release package to vastly improve in the nfl or don’t think the acl injury will impact jamo at all

[@halilsrealfootballtalk]

@@Mokuteke I'm sorry, but this sounds like it's taken straight off the standard opinions from Twitter instead of actually basing it on film study. London has impeccable feel for setting up routes and finding ways to be elusive despite his size. He may lack speed to actually pull away once he's gained leverage, but in the NFL you barely ever create several yards of separation anyway and he catches the ball extremely well in crowded areas. Williams obviously has the ACL that he has to recover from, but that's nothing major by modern medicine standards anymore. And he's actually faster and slightly better at working through contact, even if I do like Wilson a lot too.

[@Mokuteke]

@@halilsrealfootballtalk I don’t use Twitter I watch the film of these guys because I play the position. My statement about London is something I got from Brett Kollmann and watching his film. In my opinion he probably the biggest boom or bust prospect out of the other top 6 Wrs he could either be really great if he use right which there two ways he can be use right. Or he gonna be another big body Bust. The two ways he could be used right is if he plays with a highly accurate Qb such as Arod where it doesn’t matter how much separation he can create because arod can fit it in place only he could get it. Or he can be used as a big slot Wr where he won’t have to worry about press or bigger corners that can match his physicality he would face on the outside

[@tdhuny]

watch out for Marvin Harrison jr this year

[@tdhuny]

the crazy thing is that olave has said multiple times that he's not the best receiver at OSU, he's just the oldest. he said the young guys are better than him, and they'll show it later

[@AlexRollinsNFL]

I also saw GW say Olave was faster than him which was interesting since GW clocked the faster 40

[@tdhuny]

@@AlexRollinsNFL yeah, it kinda shows that we tend to value the 40 a little too much.

[@jamie-ou8xv]

@@AlexRollinsNFL cuz he only ran once bc they had him unofficially at a 4.26 so he did not feel the need to run again. He has always beaten Wilson in sprints so something got messed up for them to have his time go from 4.26 to 4.39 and Olave was always wide open cuz he out ran everyone

[@brianrhodes1987]

The real question who is the qb throwing them the ball

[@maximusrex8689]

The real answer to who is better is Jaxon Smith Njigba

[@willclapp1845]

Which wr out if all the top prospects should the Saints take if available?

[@wrbat144]

I would say chris olave is the better reciever for now, but I feel like wilson is more nfl ready given he can play anywhere you want him to, and watching his tape he reminds me of scary terry.

[@sc29e]

lol your swagger was unhinged in this video: chef's kiss, f that, and other moments

[@AlexRollinsNFL]

That football nerd swagger though

[@tubucoco]

And yet Garrett Wilson may be the better of the 2 because he's much more explosive than Chris Olave. I've watched the highlights and Wilson is more like a Tyreek Hill in how he can catch the ball and get separation from defenders and make them miss and then run away from them. Olave is a really good down-the-field route runner that can use his speed to get past a DB and catch a nice long pass or TD. He's not super fast, but he's fast enough to get past a DB in going down-the-field. But Wilson can turn a 5 to 10 yard pass into an 80 yard TD, Olave can't do that, that's the difference between him and Olave.

[@johnnyjets2343]

Wilson looked damned good today for his first pro start. 8 catches for over 100 yards and 2 touchdowns(one was a game winning td).

[@tubucoco]

@@johnnyjets2343 yep, see that's what I'm talking about. Wilson is explosive, but Olave could have had a nice game today or yesterday I should say if Jameis Winston would have played better. Winston overthrew Olave at least 3 times today, Olave could have had a monster game.

[@davidjones6071]

I don't think you can go wrong with either one, they made Fields money and will contribute towards making Stroud money.

[@tonyrobinson8050]

I'm a Redskins, WFT, Commanders fan, and I believe Garrett Wilson is the better all around talent, but Olave has that Desean Jackson type speed. Because scary Terry will be a free agent in the off season I would draft Garrett Wilson, and ultimately believe he will have a more productive NFL career.

[@benjaminkenney3706]

Damn y’all took an L today😭

[@Tom-cr3md]

Hmmm. Olave game reminds me of desean Jackson, he just so smooth going down the field and getting behind defenses. Wilson looks more explosive in the short throw game. Olave looks like a seasoned pro catching the ball. Olave is like the quiet storm, you don’t notice him then boom he is free for a td. In the first two years Olave will have a better start in the NFL bc of his rout running and top speed. Wilson will need to learn to run better routs especially at only 5 11. Wilson doesn’t have tyreek “cheetah” speed but he wants to play the same style as the cheetah. Both are good but Olave is on a better situation in new orleans

[@AlexRollinsNFL]

I agree with a lot of this, but Wilson actually ran the faster 40

[@Tom-cr3md]

@@AlexRollinsNFL Wilson ran faster than a 4.26?

[@AlexRollinsNFL]

@@Tom-cr3md that Olave time was unofficial

[@Tom-cr3md]

@@AlexRollinsNFL here is Wilson saying Olave is faster than him. Olave is a smooth runner, he is like an Olympic sprinter he runs so smooth you don’t realize how fast he is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZ-neKKmbLqqiJY

Drake London USC went before All these Turkeys . #8 . 1st Receiver chosen in the 2022 NFL Draft .

[@self-righteousideologue9398]

Lol. Yeah, that was funny. Falcons subreddit was just freaking out over that pick, and Saints, Panthers, and Bucs subreddits were laughing their asses off.

[@LuTheGOAT]

Name of the game is versatility now a days. Ill have to go Wilson off of that alone.

[@DearPenumbra]

Alex, hit me with your top 5 WRs in this class

[@barclaypierre740]

SMITH-NJIGBA

[@lsivy25]

olave is wr 1, most pro ready and his style of play will work best in the NFL. I compared him to his new teammate Michael thomas, also I compared him to stefon diggs.

[@self-righteousideologue9398]

Nah. Thomas is a bad comparison. Thomas is a bigger, more physical receiver who is also slower. He's great at short to mid range routes and is always getting open. That's not Olave. That's also why I'm excited, as a Saints fan, to have Olave. Because he is the opposite of Thomas. Which means he can do a lot of go routes with Harty which will take DBs with them and will open up the field even more for Thomas. And Jameis is good at the long ball. Be prepared to see a lot of deep throw TDs to Olave while Thomas destroys the middle. Diggs is a good comparison though.

[@lsivy25]

@@self-righteousideologue9398 that’s true, I compared him to Thomas because they both went to OSU ngl lol sooooo. I’m a buckeyes and giants fan and I wanted him at 7 a little bit.

I'd be happy with any of these 2 and saints got olave to we good 👍

When the ball is in the air, Garret Wilson has the best ball skills in the draft.

[@youngamong7618]

I'm confused it's like he forgot 2019 with DK and Brown

[@AlexRollinsNFL]

Both 2nd rounders

[@dripskylark6054]

Olave is the safe pick but if they both hit, Wilson will be better
