Rankings
Andy Hicks
Chris Olave had a career year following concussion concerns. With a fifth year extension on his rookie deal and a high round rookie pick in Jordyn Tyson, the Saints have leverage with Olave for the future. For 2026 Olave may ot reach the heights of his 2025 season, but should still represent as an excllent fantasy option.
Jason Wood
Sigmund Bloom
PPR points per game after Tyler Shough took over was a smidge over what Amon-Ra St. Brown averaged over the course of the season - ie mid WR1, low first round pick value in a typical league.
Jeff Haseley
Olave had a career-high 9 touchdowns last season that led to a WR6 finish, his only top-20 season of his career. He led the team with 156 targets, 54 more than his next closest teammate. This season he'll have some competition from 8th overall pick Jordyn Tyson, but Tyson's hamstring injury, which will shelve him for at least five games, opens the door wider for Olave to be more productive than anticipated, especially earlier in the season.
Matt Waldman
Olave can play all three positions in the league. He has been a high-level deep threat, a skilled possession option, and a YAC performer during his career.
Olave added muscle to his frame during the offseason and he'll likely see time in all three roles this year. Expect another season where Olave leads in most meanintful fantasy receiving categories for the Saints.
Ryan Weisse
Olave was a top-10 receiver last year, and with the injury to Jordyn Tyson, the Saints' offense will be largely the same in 2026. Expect a huge target share heading to Olave once again.
