I can’t believe we haven’t seen a practice video or Olave quote for two weeks. Just him doing Christmas shopping charity for children.

If I ever meet Carr IRL, I am totally calling him this.

Don't think I can trust him over Waddle
Waddle, no. Dumpster trash, yes.

A very nice win. TD would have been gravy. No complaints but imagine if he had a competent QB. Perry, Johnson and Shaeed td’s
I’m an underdog but curious how 23.2 points from Olave adjusts my decision at my last flex spot. McBride, Swift, G. Wilson. I already start AJB. Also Nick Mullens vs. Minchew.
Going against: Hurts, CMC, Deebo, Higgins, Lockett and more. Fingers crossed.

I'm out. Lost by 12. Would have loved this last week. At least it's dynasty where next year should be exciting with his continued development. Hopefully Carr doesn't drag him down.

Best thing about Olave is he now gets 9 full days of rest before next game. Hopefully owners are still alive.

2022: 15 gp, 72 rec, 119 tgts, 1042 yds, 4 td
2023: 14 gp, 81 rec, 129 tgts, 1041 yds, 4 td
As frustrating as this season has been he has equaled last season in 1 less game, with 2 games to go. His production is a little too early years Lockett (boom bust) for my liking, 5 games over 100 yards, 3 games under 30 yards. He has also left probably 5+ TDs on the turf thanks to poor throws or bad drops.
The Saints are likely stuck with Carr for a few more years thanks to the contract, as much fun as it has been to bag on Carr all season it does seem like his chemistry with Olave has improved the last month. And he is a tough mfr, with a full off season to recover and a new OC it isn't unreasonable to think that next season could be better.
For statistical comparison only, Mike Evans first 5 seasons:
2014: 15 gp, 68 rec, 124 tgts, 1051 yds, 12 td
2015: 15 gp, 74 rec, 147 tgts, 1206 yds, 3 td
2016: 16 gp, 96 rec, 175 tgts, 1321, 12 td
2017: 15 gp, 71 rec, 135 tgts, 1001, 5 td
2018: 16 gp, 86 rec, 139 tgts, 1524, 8 td
KInd of crazy in 10 seasons Evans only has 3 over 1200 yds (should hit that in the next 3 weeks to make it 4). He has been the epitome of consistency though, with 10 1000+ yds and 5 10+ td seasons. Not suggesting Olave is the next Evans but he is off to a similar start stats wise minus a few tds.
For me Olave is a hold for 2024. He makes a nice WR2 with WR1 potential.
Good luck to those still alive, hope Olave carries you to a 'ship these last 2 weeks.

This was year 1 on a 4 year deal, 2024 is fully guaranteed, they can opt out after 2025.
I am not a contract guru, I assume they could cut him after the season but that is setting $30 million on fire plus whatever the cap hit would be. 2025 isn't guaranteed until March 2025 so I guess he gets next season to prove himself.
edit: just looking at those numbers is crazy, I guess it was a better return than Daniel Jones, but still that is a lot of dough
looks like there's no money guaranteed after '24 so most likely will stick with him next year and then he'll be gone after that barring some significant turn around. not great news for Olave dynasty owners, on the other hand his QB could be Pickett or someone worse, has had some big games maybe can hope for some TD regression.
