Chris Olave, Ohio State
He have hit the end of the road as the fourth and final receiver, and maybe most similar to Robinson’s play style, is Ohio State pass catcher Chris Olave. Like Bateman, Olave is a smooth operator, getting in and out of his breaks with an immense amount of fluidity. Olave has Charmin soft hands as well, as he was the most reliable target future first rounder Justin Fields had down field for the Buckeyes.
A little smaller than the previous three receivers mentioned, Olave is listed at just 6-foot-1 and 188 pounds, but plays with a great amount of strength, especially with his hands, as he operates on opposing defensive backs. While he was still in a crowded receiver room with seniors K.J. Hill, Binjimin Victor, and Austin Mack a year ago, Olave put up 840 yards receiving and 12 touchdowns on 48 catches.
In a season in which the Big Ten may announce today they are returning to action, Olave could be poised for a massive 2020 season with the departure of the three seniors previously mentioned. Currently slated as a day-two pick among many, Olave has the potential to see his stock soar if he puts up massive production as the lead dog with the Buckeyes.
Jack Borowsky of The Dynasty Draft Room sings the praises of Olave in his scouting report:
"“Olave has the ability to pick up steam and blow by defenders in zone coverage. He can change direction well, allowing him to win on intermediate routes in the slot. He understands where to find the openings in a zone, giving his quarterback a wide-open target to throw to. His comeback and post routes are his two most reliable routes. His hands are very solid for the position.”"
A crisp route runner, strong hands, and smooth athlete. Sound like anyone you know? The Bears could turn to the direction of Olave should Robinson get his wish.
