It’s safe to say that the Ohio State Buckeyes have had no shortage of NFL-caliber talent in their ranks over the years.
Known for their offensive prowess and for being a never-ending source of talent, the Buckeyes have had some elite playmakers throughout the course of the years.
With that in mind, former NFL player Richard Sherman asked former Buckeye Chris Olave to reveal his Mt. Rushmore of Ohio State wideouts, and while it was definitely a tough task, his list was quite elite.

He chose Marvin Harrison, Cris Carter, Ted Ginn, and former teammate Garrett Wilson.
Wilson and Olave wreaked havoc in college together, and it didn’t take long before they also made their presence felt in the pros.
Wilson ran away with the NFL’s Offensive Rookie of the Year award despite some subpar quarterback play and a revolving door at the position for the New York Jets, whereas Olave broke out as the New Orleans Saints’ No. 1 target in the passing game.
Some considered Olave to be the best wideout prospect in his class last season, and the early returns were more than encouraging.
He’ll now get a much better QB in Derek Carr, who has always known how to feed his star pass-catcher, so he should be in line for an even more impressive and productive second season.
