Leading up to the start of the Buffalo Bills’ training camp at St. John Fisher University, Buffalo Rumblinks will offer up a series of positional previews from beat writers and reporters from around the country.
Today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off by previewing a wide receiver room that looks drastically different than it did last year.
Previewing Buffalo’s wide receivers
Below, a preview of Buffalo’s wide receivers — a group that lost veterans Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis and is banking on a breakthrough season from Khalil Shakir, bounce-back campaigns from Curtis Samuel, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Chase Claypool and K.J. Hamler, and the hopeful emergence of talented second-round NFL Draft pick Keon Coleman. Plus, why unleashing Samuel’s skills as a receiver is one of the biggest keys to Buffalo’s Super Bowl hopes and examining whether a trade for San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk makes sense for the Bills.
