I say bring him in...always liked Coles. This is one of the few WR's out there that I could see us bringing in that are currently available that would be an upgrade to our WR's. Obviously Housh or Boldin would be better, but Coles isnt a bad option.

That is surprising, but they also say that a "reunion" is possible. Of the many cap casualties, this is one guy actually worth bringing in.

Definitely. He would help because he's not afraid to run across the middle. Then they definitely couldn't double Evans because Coles' speed is almost up there with Lee. He could torch the defense also.

Coles is a solid WR and would be a great addition. There is zero chance that the Bills pay for a top flight WR so this is as good as they are going to get in free agency.

Comment: Coles is an eight-year veteran who has average size, but good overall athletic ability. He has decent push off the line of scrimmage with good quickness, balance and agility to be a solid route runner. He is a tough competitor who has good courage and concentration in traffic. He will extend away from his body over the middle, but may be best on perimeter patterns. He appears to have a good feel for the game and can convert routes effectively versus disguising coverages. Coles has enough speed to stretch deep zones, but isn't an explosive player. He is a well-built athlete who has some power to break tackles on the second level, but is best eluding defenders and getting upfield. He is a willing blocker, but his lack of size hinders his effectiveness. Coles is a good football player who uncharacteristically missed six games due to injury and still led the team in receiving touchdowns.

 

He's 5'11" and 193 pounds. He'll turn 32 in December.

perhaps.....I saw him drop a lot of passes the little I saw him. Looked like the Robert Royal of WR's.

 

Nonetheless....worth bringing in and seeing if he can make it. He certainly would take the double coverage off of Evans.
