With the first pick in Round 2, the Buffalo Bills added receiver Keon Coleman to their Josh Allen-led offense. After transferring from Michigan State, Coleman impressed for Florida State in 2023.
The 6-foot-3 Coleman, who doesn't turn 21 years old until next month, has the desired size for an"X" receiver at 213 pounds with 32-inch arm length., but Buffalo obviously thinks Coleman's skill set will benefit quarterback Josh Allen and the offense.After transferring to Florida State for the 2023 campaign, Coleman led the Atlantic Coast Conference in touchdown receptions . Making 12 appearances, he accounted for team highs in receptions and receiving yards .
Coleman routinely appeared in first round mock drafts prior to the NFL Combine where his stock dropped. The physical receiver ran a slow 40-yard dash . The lack of displayed speed and mediocre testing results seemingly led to a decreased interest in the prospect.The receiver's contested catch ability likely stems from his time on the basketball court. Coleman signed with Michigan State to play both football and basketball.
