Heading into the 2024 NFL Draft, there were a lot of talented wide receivers available, with this draft class being arguably the deepest at the position in league history, starting with Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers and Rome Odunze.
After shockingly trading superstar wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans recently, the Buffalo Bills had a big void to fill at the wide receiver position, especially after letting Gabe Davis walk in NFL free agency, who ultimately signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Once the Bills were finally on the clock to start the second round of the draft, the team brought in wide receiver Keon Coleman out of Florida State, who will immediately get his chance to prove his worth as a starter to start the 2024 NFL season.
Coleman is one of the top rookies in this draft class at the wide receiver position. The 21-year-old put his skills on display during a photoshoot, but he wasn’t catching passes; he was throwing the football, and it was impressive, to say the least, via Dov Kleiman.
Bills WR Keon Coleman has an INSANE arm 🤯

Even though Mitchell Trubisky is currently backing up superstar quarterback Josh Allen on the depth chart, Coleman could give the veteran backup a run for his money in terms of arm strength, as he clearly can sling it.
However, the Bills brought in Coleman to help replace Diggs, which will be some pretty big shoes to fill in Buffalo.
Only time will tell if the Bills got the right wideout to help fill the void in Buffalo, as he’ll likely have quite a few balls thrown his way during the upcoming 2024 NFL season.
