For the second time this week, there is a high-profile receiving prospect meeting the Eagles. Philadelphia is hosting a visit with Chris Olave today (Twitter link via ESPN’s Adam Schefter).

The Eagles have already hosted Alabama alum Jameson Williams, signalling a willingness to draft a wideout in the first round for a third consecutive year. Jalen Reagor has had a disappointing start to his NFL career, leading to his name being involved in trade speculation. DeVonta Smith, on the other hand, had a productive rookie campaign, but the team actively tried to add an impact veteran to the WR room.
With the draft becoming the best way to do so this late in the offseason, it comes as no surprise that Philadelphia is doing their due diligence at the position. The team owns picks No. 15 and 18 after their trade with the Saints last week. That should give them a chance to land Olave, who is generally rated behind USC’s Drake London and fellow Ohio St. product Garrett Wilson.
In four years with the Buckeyes, Olave put up consistent receiving numbers despite a healthy competition for targets. In his final three campaigns, he totalled 163 receptions for 2,505 yards and 32 touchdowns. That has placed him in the mid-first round conversation, and drawn the interest of the Cowboys and Commanders; each team has already hosted him. Philadelphia is becoming the third NFC East team to do so, as they continue to eye additions to their pass-catching corps.
I see the Eagles drafting either Jameson Williams or Chris Olave at 15 and either Nakobe Dean or Devin Lloyd at 18.
I agree these guys are all in the top group
Imagining them taking Olave and Williams though. Lethal combo to have in a year or two
Please Eagles, draft him. I’m tired of all the Buckeyes going to division rivals.
Amen!
Olave at 15 would be a steal! He has the frame , speed, & hands to a great NFL receiver! Taking him at 15 and the best defensive player at 18 would be a successful 1st round for the Birds
