    "writeup": "Volume has never been Olave's problem, given that he caught 100 balls on 156 targets last season, both fifth-most at the position, with a 27.6 percent target share and a 39.3 percent air-yards share that ranked third among qualifiers, and his 227 expected points from usage were also fifth-best. The gap between that and stardom is what happens after the catch: minus 0.52 yards of YAC over expected, bottom tenth, and just 11.6 yards per reception despite the downfield target mix. Defenses gave him some of the softest cushions in the league (91st percentile) and he still finished eight points under what usage predicted, which implicates the offense at least as much as the receiver. The early Vegas numbers rank New Orleans 23rd by implied totals, so the constraint is not going anywhere. All of that lands him in a strange spot on draft boards, a 31.8 ADP at WR12 with the projection one slot ahead at 210 points. You are buying one of the five best usage profiles in football attached to one of its ten worst offenses, and the resolution of that tension is basically the whole bet. In full-point formats the hundred-catch pace does more of the work, and his PPR ADP of 26.4 reflects that.",
