Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
Olave bypassed the 2021 NFL Draft to return to Columbus after churning out 50 receptions for 729 yards and seven touchdowns over seven games last year. Flanked by another star wideout in Garrett Wilson, Olave still led the team in all receiving categories, including targets per game (8.6) and yards per target (12.2). The question becomes what the Buckeyes’ new signal-caller can do. Olave’s success in 2021 could depend on how reliable the new starting quarterback is in his first year at the helm. Olave’s presence outside should make things much easier.
