Josh Allen
vs Chris Olave

“Josh Allen should meet little resistance, and James Cook can gash them on the ground, too.”

“Bills Fantasy Quarterback Preview Josh Allen (TRUST) We could be seeing the best season of Allen's career, which is saying something. We are only two weeks in, so we will keep things in check, but Allen is averaging career-highs in touchdown rate (8.3%), yards per pass attempt (9.7), and yards per completion (14.6). The Bills are throwing more, and they are throwing it downfield, something we were betting on this offseason.”

“Last Thursday, Allen ran in Buffalo’s first TD himself , then proceeded to spread the love to Joshua Palmer , Dawson Knox , and Dalton Kincaid before running in another TD himself for good measure. Only then did he finally hand it off to Cook for Buffalo’s sixth and final trip to the end zone. But this was ultimately the Josh Allen show, which is exactly why he lands among our overachievers this week.”

“Josh Allen remains a two-way scoring threat for the second straight week — 2 rushing TDs again. Another dual-threat scoring day (20-of-31 for 248, 3 TD passes, plus 14 carries for 69 yards with the aforementioned scores). Buffalo opened with a notable heavy package: three tight ends on the field to start.”

“Houston Texans Hot take alert: Josh Allen is good at football. The Bills quarterback supermanned his squad to a win over the vaunted Texans defense, creating big play after big play and frustrating an extremely talented unit on the other side. Offseason acquisition D.J.”

“Josh Allen led Buffalo to a 36-31 victory on the road against Houston, finally able to shake the monkey from his back at Reliant Stadium. A 34-yard touchdown pass to Joshua Palmer with 1:36 remaining in the game proved to be the decisive score and the cherry on top of Allen’s four-touchdown masterpiece. Houston’s typically stingy defense surrendered 334 passing yards and was unable to contain Allen on the ground as a runner, allowing him to score two rushing touchdowns.”

“BUF @ HOU (BUF-1.5, O/U 44.5) Josh Allen ranks as the Ballers consensus QB9 behind some names that may be on your waiver wire. However, the Ballers recommend starting Allen over names like Stafford and Goff, who rank above him this week. DJ Moore ranks as a potential FLEX play, but lower your expectations against Houston’s defense.”

“1 — Josh Allen , Buffalo Bills Allen is a model of consistency. In two of the last three years, his adjusted completion rate was above 76 percent. His big-time throw rate went from 6.1 percent in 2023 to 7.0 percent in 2024 to 5.1 percent in 2025, all while keeping his turnover-worthy play rate below three percent.”

“Josh Allen is always startable, but temper expectations slightly. The Rams play the 49ers in East Melbourne on Thursday night (Netflix), a marquee international matchup between two top-10 offenses. Both SF (+0.09) and LA (+0.14) have the firepower to put up big numbers – your Rams and 49ers skill players are strong plays.”

“Patrick Mahomes has led the league in passing yards once, and Josh Allen has yet to do it at all.”

“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.”
