Rashid Shaheed
2026 Draft note
John Paulsen
Olave's bounce-back in 2025 was one of the bigger production stories at the position–100 receptions, 1,163 yards, and nine touchdowns after missing eight games in 2024. His 95th-percentile ESPN OPEN score is the foundation: he's among the purest route-runners in the league, winning against coverage cleanly and consistently. The 83rd-percentile YPRR backs it up. The significant limitation is YAC–a 15th-percentile ESPN YAC score and 29th-percentile PFF YAC per reception confirm he's strictly a separator who relies on yards after separation rather than yards after the catch. He needs touchdowns and volume to sustain WR1 production, and the nine touchdowns in 2025 were a high-water mark that may face regression. The Jordyn Tyson arrival cuts both ways. It could draw some of Olave's targets and reduce his volume in a Saints offense that isn't swimming in passing yardage, or it could provide a secondary threat that reduces the coverage attention Olave faces and opens up easy opportunities. Tyler Shough entering Year 2 with Kellen Moore is a modest positive. Going as the WR15, Olave is a WR2 whose ceiling requires touchdowns that aren't guaranteed to repeat.
