The Eagles are hosting former Ohio State star wide receiver Chris Olave on a top-30, pre-draft visit at the NovaCare Complex.
Olave caught 65 passes for 936 yards and 13 touchdowns for the Buckeyes last season, and he’s in town one day after former Alabama star Jameson Williams visited as well.
If the Eagles do wind up using a first round pick on a WR, it would be the third straight year that they have done so (Jalen Reagor, DeVonta Smith).
Philly would become just the second team in the common draft era to ever do this, joining the Lions from 2003-2005. https://t.co/Hc0Qrtb4kQ

Philadelphia has two first-round picks in the draft and if they nabbed a wide receiver, it would be the third straight year such a move was made for a franchise searching for an explosive downfield passing game.
Olave is a smooth route runner, who constantly finds the end zone, and during his career with the Buckeyes, he logged 163 total receptions for 2,505 yards and 32 career touchdowns.
