In no particular order 

 

Jimmy Smith- still can play, and I think would be a Micah Hyde type player, in that, we all know he's a good player, but with good scheme and coaching, he'd be possibly pro bowl level. 

 

Arik Armstead- good fit for our defense. He'd allow us to focus on offense in the draft, and be a really solid pass rusher for our team. 

 

Austin Hooper or Darryl Williams- in Hooper it would give Allen a reliable target over the middle. Only thing is it cuts into Knox reps. I love Knox, but we gotta maximize our offense especially while Allen is on his rookie deal. Williams can still play. Yes, he has injury history, but I truly believe in our staff and keeping guys healthy. He's versatile, and would allow Cody Ford to move inside to guard, where I think, he'd really flourish. 

 

Let me also predict we move up in the draft. I guarantee you we end up with Jeudy, Lamb, or Ruggs. No way Beane leaves this draft without a stud WR. 

 

You fail as well.

I had the same conclusion after looking at the list.  There's no one on there after Cooper who I'm enthused about.  Green and Sanders are good but I want youth.

Robby Anderson does intrigue me if we think we can control the craycray; because the market is so thin I'm betting on "overpaid" for him.

I do feel we should take a shot on bringing in some guys to at least be a "backup plan" if we draft a rookie who needs development time.  Of course, whether or not that makes sense would depend upon whether they think they'll bring back McKensie and what they think they might see out of Duke.

I just figured Anderson isn't even on our radar given his issues. Doesn't seem to be the type of player Beane and McDermott would want to bring in. But he's a good player.

Indeed, I can not figure that out.

Well, we apparently were willing to try AB.....

I want WR, but don't wanna spent 15-20 million for aging and injury prone receivers. I want us to take a stud rookie like Jeudy, Lamb, or Ruggs. 

 

I also want a stud. Not some guy with tons of question marks. Let's get a stud that can take pressure off of Brown and Beasley.

I’m just giving you a hard time cause of the thread title and not listing any free agent receivers

Robbie Anderson, Robbie Anderson and Robbie Anderson.

 

We already stole Andre Roberts off the Jets, so why not kick them in the junk AGAIN and sign Robbie Anderson to a long term FA deal, stealing Darnold's speedster?

 

Pure MF genius.

Amari Cooper and AJ Green are the only two guys who I believe can come in and unseat someone. 

 

Perriman or Latimer types aren’t going to beat our McKenzie who has been with this offense for multiple years. 

 

Its a bad year for Free Agent WRs. They need to draft two guys in the first 4 rounds imo

I know bud. I think I actually needed to expand on my opinion, and you helped me do that! Go Bills!

Josh Gordon - if weed has been his problem, maybe it won't be so much of a problem anymore.  Probably the most talented FA WR when healthy, though that's been an issue over the last several years.  Allow me to propose the cliche, low-risk, prove it deal.

 

Breshad Perriman - 1st round dud who did zilch for the better part of 5 years, or 1st round stud who averaged 5-101-1 over his last 5 games?  I'd be willing to take a chance on the latter.  2 years @ $19M doesn't seem like too high of a price to find out.

 

Geronimo Allison - was off to a good start in 2018 (19-289-2 through week 4) before injuries derailed his season.  Not sure what happened last year.  I wouldn't give up any trade compensation if the Packers tender him, but he could be an upgrade on our roster if they decide to let him walk.

6'2" 215 lb 4.24 40   Breshad Perriman is my top choice. Big, strong, ridiculously fast, and just starting to show why he was a 1st round draft choice. I think his price range will be worth the risk. Having him opposite Brown will spread the defense and open up more of the field. Here are highlights from a couple of his last games when Evans and Godwin were hurt and he became #1 option.

Perriman and Demarcus Robinson. I don't really have a 3rd so I will go with one in the draft. I really wanna trade up for 1 of the top 3 if they fall to around 15. Ruggs would be so dangerous with the cannon Allen has.

Perriman and Latimer are both 6'2" 215, McKenzie is 5'8" 173. They are not similar types of receivers. Latimer is as fast as McKenzie despite being 40 lbs heavier and Perriman is significantly faster than both.

  I don't think a free agent would be replacing McKenzie necessarily either. The Bills have other receivers who would be let go before him.

I loved Laquon Treadwell coming out of college (which explains why I am not a NFL GM). He is 6' 2" 221. Has not lived up to expectations but has behind Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen. I would like him if cheap (low risk - some potential reward), but other than him I would prefer to use a couple of picks in the draft on the position.

Did he not have a legal issue a few years ago?  Is he a high character guy?  He has talent but not sure if he fits the Bills profile.

 

Arrested twice for being a knucklehead. During one of them, he allegedly told the arresting officer he was going to ***** his wife.

He will not be a Bill.

Demarcus Robinson - what happened after his week 2 172 yard game?...still young, sitting behind 3 good receivers, wouldn't cost much to try out.

A.J. Green - still has a few years left in the tank...true #1 WR...1.5 seasons of time off to come in fresh

Breshard Perriman - 645 yards and 6 TD's sitting behind 2 1K+ yard receivers in TB...so far hasn't shown to be the rd1 guy but I'd give him a shot with Allen slinging the ball

"Nut in her eye" I think was the exact quote. 

 

The Bills might have to take a personality risk at receiver. You have to just trust your locker room is strong enough to deal with it.

Like who? Beasley and Brown aren’t going anywhere. Andre Roberts stays for STs, McKenzie stays over either of those guys. So really we’re talking Duke Williams or Robert Foster(who wasn’t even really active most of the time). I think Duke has a much higher upside than Latimer at this point and Perriman has only had a. 1/2 good season in the NFL. If we’re talking Robert Foster than sure I guess they would take his spot on the inactives. 

 

2 draft picks would in the first 4 rounds conceivably take McKenzie and Duke/Fosters spot in the roster or at worse McKenzie and Williams. 

 

The WR corps looks a lot better with Brown, Beasley, Jefferson(1st round) , Duke Williams, Andre Roberts, and a 4th rounder with STs capabilities than it does with either of those guys taking Williams spot.

My question is.... why did it take so long to start playing at a high level. I question because he does have everything physically, does he have the smarts.

 

John Brown said Dabolls offense is the toughest offense he’s ever had to learn.  Bills need WR playmakers that get it if you know what I mean.

That’s one reason why I’m keen on Sanders. He’s a precise route runner with speed and SAC, but he’s also a heady veteran that’s played in complex schemes in Pittsburgh, Denver, and SF.

If we're being realistic:

 

1. Breshad Perriman - He battled some injuries his first few years, but came on strong last year for TB. He would be a big, vertical threat for Daboll to line up in various places. 

 

2. AJ Green - He too has battled some injuries the last couple of years. But if the docs give him a clean bill of health, he immediately would change the WR dynamic on this team. If he's healthy, a big IF, he should be able to give a team a #1 threat for at least another 2-3 seasons. 

 

3. Emmanuel Sanders - He's another on the smallish side, but he's productive, an excellent route runner, and can get open against anyone.

Gonna cheat and list 4:

 

1. Robby Anderson - don’t think I need to explain much. He’s a legitimately good starter if you can get past the personality. 
 

2. Paul Richardson - can line up out wide and be an explosive playmaker when healthy. Has experience starting which I think is key this offseason. We’ve also been interested in the past. 
 

3. Taylor Gabriel - basically McKenzie if McKenzie were good. 
 

4. Devin Funchess - experience as a starter, red zone/contested catch target, Beane is/was a fan, would likely be a short and cheap deal.

Agreed -- One knucklehead on the team is fine as long as he's not paired up with other knuckleheads (see Browns, Cleveland).

In my South Florida days in the '90s, there was a saying about players from Miami (the "U") on professional teams. Any more than one was trouble. That stuck with me, but I forgot why. I think it had something to do with the school's partying reputation.

I think we should draft two WRs in the first 3-4 rounds.  And, hit on one of them and hopefully both.  If we sign a FA (which I would like), we still should draft two with the quality available and our needs.
