Ohio State wide receiver Chris Olave, a potential first-round pick for the Green Bay Packers in the 2022 NFL draft, confirmed he’s had virtual meetings with the Packers during the pre-draft process.
“I had conversations with the Packers, a lot. We had a couple of Zooms, I talked to them a little bit,” Olave told Zach Gelb of CBS Sports Radio.
The Packers hold two picks (No. 22, No. 28) in the first round and have a massive need for a receiver after losing Davante Adams and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Olave, who is possibly the best route-runner in the class and also ran 4.39 in the 40-yard dash, could give the Packers a receiver capable of creating separation and producing big plays down the field.
