Drake London
vs Chris Olave

“We needed the Falcons to stop making an offense built around Bijan Robinson and Drake London look like such a difficult assignment. Bijan piling up 213 scrimmage yards with two TDs, and London catching nine passes for 194 yards is a pretty convincing argument for getting your best players the friggin’ ball. That is why you should be encouraged by Penix.”

“Drake London gets a boost now that Penix Jr. is Atlanta’s starting QB, with 16.4 fantasy PPG with Penix Jr.”

“Atlanta has not reached the red zone through two games, and London has yet to see a red-zone or deep target. Michael Penix Jr. returning should help, but Green Bay has been tough on perimeter receivers, so I am not expecting the quarterback change to fix everything right away. I would still start London in most leagues, but I think he is more likely to give you a low-end WR2 week than play up to that top-30 flex ranking.” – Justin Fuhr ( Pro Football Mania )”

“London has an 18.5% target share, 1.78 YPRR, zero red zone targets, zero deep targets, and a team-leading 20% first-read share. London hasn’t been bad, as he ranks 25th in separation score among 101 qualifying receivers after two weeks, but he can’t throw accurate passes to himself. We’ll see if he can get on track this week against a secondary that has held perimeter wide receivers to the sixth-fewest yards per target, but has allowed the 13th-most fantasy points per opportunity to the position.”

“London can still rebound, but if he’s going to reach his WR1 ceiling, he needs Michael Penix or Tua Tagovailoa to return. Until then, he’s more of a boom-or-bust WR2/3. For a guy with a second-round price tag, panic is definitely valid.”

“Falcons WR Drake London had just two catches for 29 yards on four targets and TE Kyle Pitts failed to catch his lone target. “Bijan is a great player. We are going to continue leaning on him, but we have to find ways to get all of our guys touches,” Falcons HC Kevin Stefanski said via the Athletic’s Josh Kendall .”

“Murray/Hockenson with Olave is my shot at MIN scoring through the air instead of through Jones.”

“Saints Fantasy Wide Receiver Preview Chris Olave (TRUST) Olave has double-digit targets in every game, leading to lines of 10-182-0, 8-86-1, and 9-107-0. He has run 132 routes (2nd only to his teammate Devaughn Vele ) but has seen 29% of the targets (WR5) and 47.7% of the air yards (WR4). He has play volume and front-end usage on his side, which has made him a front-end WR1 for fantasy.”

“Olave has had at least 10 targets in each game this season. Olave will be somewhat popular, but with his price the sixth-highest on DraftKings, rostership shouldn’t be too aggressive. He’s a strong stack with Shough and playable as a one-off as well.”

“Chris Olave is second in the league in both catches and receiving yards. Olave is also tied for second with DK Metcalf in total routes run. And yet, Olave is actually second on his own team in routes run.”

“Chris Olave – 13 targets, 10 rec Devaughn Vele – 9 targets, 7 rec Travis Etienne Jr . – 9 targets, 7 rec The Saints fell to Detroit in that overtime game, but it was not for lack of trying, especially from Tyler Shough , who attempted 56 passes. With that many passes going around, it is not surprising to see a trio of Saints with at least nine targets. Olave averaged 9.8 targets/game last season, while Vele tied his career-high with the nine targets.”

“Playing with a guardian cap in an effort to stave off concussions that have plagued him in the past, Olave is easily Tyler Shough ‘s favorite target and will look to repeat as a mid-range WR1 this season.”

“Chris Olave averaged 18.8 fantasy PPG with Tyler Shough. Only Puka Nacua, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Ja’Marr Chase and Amon-Ra St. Brown averaged more in 2025.”

“Whenever he is on the field opposite Chris Olave (who has his own injury history), Tyson has tremendous upside, offering elite separation ability and versatility across the field.”

“Chris Olave (WR – NO) | ADP: 27 (WR11) Chris Olave is in the bucket of players I discussed in the intro who have a high floor and a high ceiling, hence Olave’s average draft position (ADP) at the beginning of the third round in 12-team leagues.”

“Chris Olave is my answer because the market is still pricing him as a back-end WR1 while I see a legitimate path to a top-five season.”

“Round 4: Chris Olave (WR – NO) With Tyler Shough as his quarterback and Rashid Shaheed not on the field, Olave had a near 30% target share.”
