He's best suited for a vertical passing scheme that emphasizes seam routes and intermediate throws, leveraging his size and speed up the middle of the field.
Oliver could develop into a starting 'Y' tight end with a high catching upside, capable of contributing immediately as a receiving threat.
A run-heavy, gap-scheme offense where he's primarily asked to block on the line would diminish his unique speed and receiving skills.
A receiving-first tight end with an excellent athletic profile for the position, Oliver needs a system that prioritizes his pass-catching abilities to truly shine.
Selected #69 overall in Round 3 of the 2019 NFL Draft by Jacksonville Jaguars out of San Jose State.
