Who Should I Start? Chris Olave or Rashee Rice

The New Orleans Saints are reportedly interested in trading wide receiver Chris Olave. The Pittsburgh Steelers have called the Saints asking about the availability of Olave. On paper, the Steelers do make sense after they traded wideout George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys. The Saints appear to be headed towards a rebuild and trading Olave would get the organization a nice return. It's worth noting the Saints don't seem overly eager to trade Olave, but they'd be foolish not to listen to offers. They recently picked up the fifth-year option on Olave last month. It's hard to imagine the Saints trade Olave unless the Steelers make an unbelievable offer for the stud wideout.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes confirmed that wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) is healthy and has been taking part in the team's voluntary offseason workouts. "The expectations are high," Mahomes said of Rice. "I mean, he looks really good. He's running routes. He's catching the football. I don't know when we get back into the actual OTAs, how much he'll be able to do, but he's been able to do everything here, as far as running routes and everything like that." It's great news for the 25-year-old, who suffered a season-ending LCL tear in Week 4 against the Chargers last year. The Chiefs will likely be cautious with Rice when OTAs begin, but barring a setback, he's fully expected to be ready for training camp and the start of the 2025 regular season this fall. In addition to coming off a major knee injury, Rice could be facing discipline from the league for an off-the-field incident. But all that aside, he has clear WR1 upside.
