RotoWire on Chris Olave

Elite metrics (50% air yards, 29% first-read rate) position him as JSN-like league winner.

Alave is positioned as this year's Jackson Smith-Njigba with elite metrics: 50.1% air yard share, 29.3% first-read rate, and 26.5% target share in Week 1, resulting in 10 catches for 182 yards on 13 targets. Like Smith-Njigba, Alave was drafted inside round three for much of the offseason. Mike Mcdaniel expects target share to reach 30%+ in many weeks and notes that while Tyler Shuck's 56-pass-attempt, 410-yard performance was a career high, the Saints offense can thrive in both head-to-head and garbage-time environments. Mcdaniel: "Chris Alave could be this year's version of JSN. A league winner that's found inside of round three."
