I'm posting statistical data. It's not my theory.

And the problem is if Olave isn't an all-pro very quickly, we overpaid. If Olave is a bust we completely fricked ourselves.


They don't seem to understand that people don't hate picking Olave, they hate the amount of capital used on a WR that while could be a pro-bowl guy, does not show the makings of am All-Pro. You could have gotten a higher potential lower floor guy in the second if you were planning on taking a risk.

This is the same thing they did with Trautman and wasting capital to go up and get him, but at least they thought his ceiling was really high.

Olave will never be a #1 WR unless you count someone like Cooks as a true #1. He will always be a #2, and that is why wasting not only the capital from the Philly trade, but then even more to get him was not logical. It was a waste in that sense.

He may turn out to be a really solid WR, but he will never be worth amount paid for him. Reminds me of the Ingram trade but worse.

i dont think the Saints FO agrees with you, and they have some skins on the wall to back it up. but its all TBD until 3-4 years from now.

Ingram is now our all time leading rusher....if Olave even comes close to that type of production, you should he escatic we got him for that.
