Bills' Keon Coleman mistake looms large in 2026 NFL Draft week
Buffalo didn't get this one right.
Bills' Keon Coleman mistake looms large in 2026 NFL Draft week originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . About two years ago, the Buffalo Bills drafted an exciting wide receiver talent, Keon Coleman, at the start of the second round.
That choice looms large as the Bills prepare for this week's 2026 NFL Draft, and not in a good way. The Coleman choice seemed logical at the time. A big, athletic wide receiver to grow into one of Josh Allen's top targets?
An awesome idea. Coleman flashed as a rookie, too, with a handful of big plays. Heading into the 2025 season, he was supposed to take a step forward and be a rising star.
Instead, he was late for meetings, benched for that and ineffective when he was on the field at all. And now the Bills' whole offseason has had that lack of WR certainty hovering over it.
