I’d be willing to bet on it. He is baby shite soft.

That may be a little generous. He probably struggles getting just the bar up.

What did we ever see in him to invest a first round pick on him?

That does not take away from the fact that Olave is by far the softest player on the team

Has he ever come down with a contested catch and hung on to it? Can't think off one time that he did. Dude has really weak hands.

Clearly not a WR1. I really don’t want to pay him $15.6M next season

He has 2809 career yards, 224 receptions and 11 touchdowns. You want a bit more from a first round pick. But here are the other WR picks from 2022:

Jameson Williams 1619/94/11
Jahan Dotson 1368/110/11
Treylon Burks 699/53/1, hasn't played in 2025

Second round, about the same. George Pickens has good numbers but also washed out of Pittsburgh because of his attitude.

Conclusion: Not a great year at the position. Probably better not to trade up because you need extra draft picks with the cap situation.
