Honestly, to see DA noticing the area weakest on our team was all I needed to see.

Payton would have once again left WR to UDFA's.

At this stage, getting at least 2 (maybe 3) day 1 starters from the draft is a win in my book.

I am concerned that we lost some leadership and talent in the defensive backfield, so I'm interested to see what happens regarding that.

It's been rumored on some OSU boards that Olave was partially the reason why Jameson Williams transferred to Alabama.

Not sure it's valid but I found that interesting.

Olave, Wilson & Williams. Man, they were stacked at WR.

I'm coming around to this draft pick. I'm still salty about the capital we surrendered but yes we needed a stud WR. All signs point to Olave as the real deal.

Our team is loaded. If we get good QB play, we should be competing for a title. We are going to really miss Sean though. I kind of wonder if he wishes he would have hung around for another year.

I doubt it. He'll be making just as much money while working a fraction of the hours.

I remember reading where Jay Glazer, a good friend of Payton's, saying he could tell from the previous off-season that Sean was no longer enjoying what he was doing.

It looks like Olave and Michael Thomas are already working out together. That has to be a good indicator of Thomas' readiness.

Steep price. High floor. Huge ceiling. I'll take it!
