Get Mitchell or Worthy at 28 and the offense will have the best weapons for Allen in his career.

I would bet money that our first draft pick goes to defense.

Yes! Hahahahahaha 

 

Over the last 12 games of the regular season and the 2 playoff games (14 games), Diggs had one game with 100 yards receiving and 3 total TDs.  Bills did not have a #1 receiver for 3/4 of the 2023-2024 season.  It certainly appears as if he’s not him anymore.

Think the narrative would have changed quite a bit if Allen didn't constantly overthrow him while he was wide open just about every game.

Constantly? I seem to remember a dime bouncing off of his hands in our 3 point playoff loss to KC. 

 

Reasonably, I think Diggs is still a #1 WR on this team and in this league. But I don’t think he’s quite what he was at his peak and he’ll be 31 this November. That’s been the about the time WRs hit their productivity cliffs. The Samuel signing is as much about having a Diggs replacement on the roster as it is filling out the WR corps.

Here is a list of available UFA WR's.   I highlighted ones we could still possibly target

[Warriorspikes51]

it's possible Beane would be interested in adding Mike Williams on a 1 year deal 
 

 

Diggs
M. Williams
Brian Thomas Jr / Legette / Mitchell 
Samuel
Shakir
Hollins

I’ve gone from wanting Worthy because I think he’s at least WR4 in the draft…

 

To wanting Worthy just to see the board complain that “He’S aNoThEr SmAlL sLoT wR!” despite the facts that he plays big, runs great routes, and is consistently productive on the boundary. 

 

 

[In Summary]

Please just draft a cost-controlled rookie who has strong WR1 potential. Enough with the side shows.

one thing is for sure, if we added Worthy....we become way more explosive than last year

DJ Chark might be a better player and fit than any of the names highlighted.

Chark has a career catch rate similar to if not worse than Gabe Davis.

[Warriorspikes51]

The Cardinals are a dumb franchise.  Call them about the 4th overall pick for Harrison Jr.

28, 60, 128, 144, 2025 1st, 2026 2nd

and he would cost about 1/3 of what Davis just got. If you could have Davis for Chark money, he'd still be here.

True, but I don’t think any team expects their 4th and 5th receivers will make much impact.  I do agree that we need a bit more from those spots than we got last year (though Sherfield was fine on Special Teams).

Not spending draft picks on WR at this point is criminal. It’s year f’ing 7 of Franchise QB Josh Allen’s career.

I am not arguing against using a high pick on a WR.  I hope that they do draft one in the first or second round and I hope the one they draft turns out to be great.

Greg Cosell disagrees

 

 

1-drafted WR -AD Mitchell is my guess

2-Diggs

Slot-Shakir

3-Samuel.

4-Hollins

 

I think there is a great chance the Bills select two WR this draft, and possibly carry 6 WR, with the 6th spot being big WR and 4 phase special teams player and/or returner
