Bills GM Brandon Beane definitively addressed the ongoing rumors surrounding a potential trade for Brandon Aiyuk or any high-profile wide receiver available in the market. Beane emphasized the team’s limited cap space, stating that there would be no big trades forthcoming. Despite earlier speculation linking the Bills to players like Aiyuk and Tee Higgins, Beane clarified that financial constraints prevented such acquisitions.
While analysts had considered the Bills as strong contenders for Aiyuk or Higgins, speculation intensified after the team traded back twice during the NFL Draft, acquiring additional mid-round picks. However, it seemed no serious offers materialized for Aiyuk during the draft, with the 49ers receiving no substantial trade inquiries.
Bolstering their receiving corps was a priority for the Bills following the departure of Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis. They addressed this need during the draft by selecting Florida State wide receiver Keon Coleman with their first pick in the second round. Coleman revealed that Bills quarterback Josh Allen expressed his approval of the selection, expressing his eagerness to play alongside him. Coleman also expressed admiration for Allen’s talent, eagerly anticipating the opportunity to catch passes from him.
