You are a hopeless homer if you think Olave is better than G Wilson. Hell, he's not even as good as Lance Moore from back in the day.

Olave 's role is WR 1 and he's terrible in that role. He cost us insane draft compensation. He's cost us 6-8 games. He's not even exactly a likable dude. I don't get the appeal unless you are a Twink that likes his occasional tiktok dances that he puts up in L's.

When they both play dummy.


And i’ve stated multiple times even now on average when Olave plays they are about still the same.

Apparently we were going to make a deal with the Giants to send them Olave and a 2026 5th for CB Deonte Banks and a 2026 4th.
This fell through because Pittsburgh has offered a 2026 3rd straight up for Olave.

N/S: Apparently AJ Brown on the move to New England as well
Pretty big and knows ball? He is just a fan with an instagram account.

A 3rd is fair, even if it is probably later in the round
Knowing Mickey, he would send back a 4th in the trade as well. He always seems to throw in a pick in deals.

The Saints front office literally has no reason to trade Olave. The fans see it completely different though
You continue to prove you do not know football. So, the concussion issues and pending extension demands are not a reason?

That is laughable. So, if a player does not play, you are fine with that. The concussions do not matter or the fact that he will likely have a short career. Your 2022 metrics are irrelevant in 2025 after all of the injuries and his knack for being afraid to take a hit.

You are saying a bunch of nothing.

Facts are Garrett Wilson just signed a 4/130 million dollar extension while Saints fans don’t even want to pay Olave 3/75.

Who cares what happened in 2022 when we are discussing current values.

3 is fair, it would be nice if there was a conditional 2nd based off playoffs or super bowl attached.

draft right you get another cheap starter in the 3rd round. maybe solid guard or capital to move around.

You don't really know what you are talking about. He has 127k followers and offers really good insights for sports betting and fantasy for NFL. I've tailed him and won a couple of monster parlays. So yes, he knows ball. Like I said, take it with a big grain of salt but thought it would be worth sharing. Nice of you to contribute as well.

I’m a big time homer but Wilson I would take over Olave any day.

Im not fine with him not playing. All I said is his talent level is that of wilson, you can argue slightly better.

I said when they both play. Its you still talking about 2022. You could’ve threw 2023 in there too.

Even the few games he plays the last two years when both play olave is slightly better.

It’s pretty obvious you don’t watch tape, and don’t take all factors into account. It doesn’t matter that Garrett Wilson had Patrick Surtain on him last week. Olave had more your yards last week so that means Olave is the better player. It doesn’t matter who is throwing the ball to the player, it doesn’t matter the system they are in. If one player has more yards than the other player that means they are the better player.

This is the stupid argument you are currently trying to make. Dude please shut the frick up and move along.

Its pretty obvious your fricking delusional when you idiots decide to hate a player you say the dumbest shite man we’re done here.


When both play olave is better leave me the frick alone

Look how fricking dumb you are you decided to choose yards when theres many metrics he’s better in. Lol were done dude foh


At what point did I tell you yards determined who’s better? i didn’t once again your a fricking idiot.


You go back the 2024 even Wilson only had 60 more yards than olave when he got injured and Olave basically missed 2-3 games. Olave had a higher catch percentage. Ran less routes again. Higher yards per target. Better at almost everything.


But let you tell it just yards you somehow decided to focus on?


So again when you idiots decide to hate a player it ain’t even worth talking about. Im done.


OLAVE ONLY ISSUE IS HEALTH. You don’t have to force the narrative he’s a bad player thats ridiculous. You kidding while not convincing yourself that he’s not one of the best young receivers in the NFL. A Fact you can’t change.

Please show me where I said I hate or don’t like Olave. I just think highly of Wilson’s skill set.

You the one that posted the damn links showing his catches and yards. Not me.

And here you are discussing yards once again. You are the one talking about yards, not me. I’m just responding to your dumb logic.

Again, I don’t hate Olave. You are making shite up in your head.

his other issue is that he isn’t explosive with the ball in his hands. Wilson is more dynamic in that area. Outside of that their games are pretty similar.

I could have found us a cheap receiver off the street that will give us a catch a game that won’t cost a good draft pick…
