The Buffalo Bills are entering somewhat of a new era on offense.
They had to remake almost their entire wide receiver core.
All-Pro wide receiver Stefon Diggs was traded to the Houston Texans and deep threat Gabe Davis signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars as a free agent.
To combat these losses, Buffalo drafted Florida State wide receiver Keon Coleman in the second round of this year’s NFL Draft.
They also went out and added a multitude of free-agent wide receivers such as Curtis Samuel, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Chase Claypool, and Mack Hollins.
The Coleman addition is arguably the most fascinating.
Even though he is a rookie and has some big shoes to fill, he simply plans on being himself.
“All I gotta do is come in, be myself, be who I’m supposed to be…Because I’m not Gabe, I’m not Stef, I’m just Keon,” Coleman recently told CBS Sports.

The 21-year-old rookie seems to be unfazed by the expectations.
An All-Big Ten performer at Michigan State (2022) and an All-ACC performer at Florida State (2023), Coleman has produced in multiple places before coming to Buffalo.
Standing at 6-4 and weighing 215 pounds, Coleman is a big-play threat any time he steps on the field.
Buffalo should look a little different through the air from what they have been the last few years, but anything is possible with Josh Allen at quarterback.
Look for Coleman to have a big hand in determining how dangerous this offense can be at any location on the field at any point during a game.
