One thing was apparent in the Buffalo Bills' Week 5 loss: they need significant help at wide receiver.
The Buffalo Bills made significant alterations to their weapons corps in the 2024 offseason, moving on from perennial Pro Bowler Stefon Diggs and complementary option Gabriel Davis in favor of a medley of talented, but unproven pass-catchers like Dalton Kincaid, Keon Coleman, Curtis Samuel, and Khalil Shakir to diversify offensive production. While a few weapons have been promising, others have been a bit underwhelming compared to expectations or complete non-factors.
With Shakir sidelined, Buffalo’s wide receivers were targeted by Allen 18 times in the Week 5 loss; they hauled in just four total passes. Four. For 76 yards, with Coleman catching the lone touchdown. Are you kidding me? It's true that Allen had one of his worst games in recent memory, but regardless, it was a putrid game from the receiving corps.
There are other options out there too, such as Cleveland Browns wideout Amari Cooper and young Green Bay Packers receiver Romeo Doubs. Either could be acquired with less draft capital and would be financially cheaper; however, they aren't the same level of player as Adams. Beane's not afraid to pull off blockbuster maneuvers when he thinks they could better position his team for immediate success ; acquiring Adams would certainly accomplish this.
Buffalo needs a playmaking veteran presence, a true alpha to turn its collection of "good to have" players at wide receiver and tight end into a truly fearsome unit. The trade deadline is November 5, but getting this done sooner rather than later may be beneficial for all parties involved.Why Bills’ Week 5 clash with Stefon Diggs, Texans is not a revenge game
