Keon Coleman

At 6'4" and 215 lbs, Keon Coleman's physicality is undeniable, making him a prototypical outside X-receiver. His junior year performance in his first year at Florida State was noteworthy, with 50 receptions, 658 receiving yards, and 11 touchdowns, averaging 13.2 yards per reception. Good for a 31% dominator rating. But he broke out officially in his sophomore season the year prior at Michigan State, with 58 catches, 798 yards, and seven touchdowns over 12 games. Hung a 29% dominator rating at just 19 years old. And he did this while competing for targets with an older future NFL star in the making, Jayden Reed. Coleman had more catches, targets, yards and TDs than the future second-round pick, despite being three years YOUNGER than Reed. Coleman would go on to the be the first WR selected in the 2nd round of the 2024 NFL Draft. He's attached to a great QB on a depth chart that he can easily ascend.

The Buffalo Bills selected WR Keon Coleman with the No. 33 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact

After trading down twice out of the first round on Thursday, the Bills have selected Coleman out of Florida State. After trading Stefon Diggs, the expectation was they would draft a wide receiver early. They were also in the middle of rumors to potentially trade for Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel or Tee Higgins but this move likely leaves them out of that conversation.
