He never going to be a number 1 option and I do not see him resigning unless we heavily over pay. I think we need to trade him for some draft capital. 2nd, future 3rd and maybe a 5th. I’d be very happy with that.

You won’t get anything close to that with Olave’s 5 concussions.

If the Saints traded for somebody with his concussion history and Olave’s production and missed time you’d be livid giving up a 2,3 and maybe 5.

We’d take a 3rd tomorrow if someone would offer, maybe an early 4th.

100% should trade him even if he didn’t have the concussion issues. In my opinion he won’t be worth what he’ll command on a new contract anyway.

Davante Adams was traded for a 2025 3rd & a 2026 4th; and you think you can demand more for a guy who

At this point I would gladly take a 2nd rounder straight up for Olave.

He is soft as baby shite and is getting lazy.

Wait one more year and the best will be able to get will be a fourth rounder.

You wouldn’t even get a 2nd for him.

Doesn’t make sense to get off him when his value is the lowest cause of the injury. Also a tough look to get rid of one of the few good young players on a team that is talent deficient

You not going to get fair value for him, so you might as well keep him.

Hopefully he smart enough to wear that thing over his helmet. He was thinking about it , decided against it and promptly got lit up and was out for the year first game back.

Your points are fair but I still think there are 31 other teams - hopefully one of them is stupid enough to trade for Olave.

I would take a 3rd or better all day long.

This isn’t Madden.

Give me a 5th and I’ll help him pack.

Can’t show off your talent when you are constantly hurt.

Played 92% of the games played in ‘22 & ‘23. This the first time he missed real time

Usually how it starts especially with concussions.

It’s not a hamstring man. Head injuries are cumulative.
