Chris Olave Makes Definitive Claim on Top 5 2024 NFL Draft Prospect.

Chris Olave is Ohio State through and through, which is why he is cheering for a fellow alumnus to have success in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft.

In a joint interview with Bleacher Report, the New Orleans Saints star was joined by the Seattle Seahawks’ Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and they voiced their high hopes for Marvin Harrison Jr., who is largely touted as the greatest wide receiver in the draft.

“He’s going to be a top-tier talent,” said Olave of Harrison Jr. “Right when he steps into the league, he has all the potential in the world, but his work ethic is going to push him over the top. I’m excited to see what he does in the NFL and where he falls in the draft.”

“I know me and Chris agree, he is one of one. We’re delighted to watch him succeed at the next level,” added Smith-Njigba.

Marvin Harrison Jr. joins an elite line of Ohio State WRs, including Chris Olave and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Marvin Harrison Jr. is predicted as a Top 5 candidate in the 2017 NFL Draft, considering his strong credentials. The 21-year-old exits Ohio State with two Unanimous All-American honors, a Fred Biletnikoff Award, and a Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year Award.

In his three seasons with the Buckeyes, Marvin Harrison Jr. has totaled 150 receptions for 2,495 receiving yards and 31 touchdowns. He is, by the way, the son of Marvin Harrison Sr., a former NFL WR great.

The Arizona Cardinals are reportedly focused on taking him with the fourth overall pick.

“He’s a stud. If he’s there, I hope we get him. Kyler (Murray) would love to toss it to him. I saw him working out at Ohio State some years back,” said Larry Fitzgerald.

“He’s a heck of a lot more talented than I was at that age,” he added. “He can take short passes and go long. He can go over the top. He’s a willing participant in terms of blocking in the run game.”

Ohio State is noted for producing NFL-caliber wide receivers throughout the years, including Marvin Harrison Jr., Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, Terry McLaurin, Michael Thomas, Curtis Samuel, Noah Brown, and Parris Campbell.

Emeka Egbuka, Jeremiah Smith, and Carnell Tate are slated to be next in line for Ohio State, following Harrison’s departure.
