TE Greg Olsen, CHI

TE - #4 CHI 3 years 24 6'4 252

2009 Outlook: Stud (low risk)

Olsen had over 50 receptions for five touchdowns last season; this was with a lackluster quarterback. With Jay Cutler's arm and ability to fit the ball into tight spaces with a big target, Olsen might be more productive in 2009. We have seen Cutler utilize his tight ends in various scenarios and be successful in catching defenses off guard. Look for Olsen to be a stud tight end this season and for Cutler to target him early and often. I am figuring the two connect for at least 60 receptions and 6-10 touchdowns. Olsen is definitely a top 10 TE.

2009 Mock Draft Results

Month Position Franchise/Comments
May 8.05 Rotoworld.com - A potential top-three tight end this season.
June 7.10 CBSSports.com - The addition of Jay Cutler should help Olsen take the next step in his career as an elite TE.
July 7.02 RapidDraft.com - This is probably at least a round earlier than I'd usually take him, but the shallow lineup in this league amps up the position's importance. I see a gap between Olsen -- who seems to me like the best bet to lead the Bears in receptions -- and the rest of the remaining tight ends.
