  7. Just a reminder. Everyone freaked out because the bills drafted Allen instead of Rosen. Maybe this will be the same thing?

  10. Just showed a highlight of him hurdling a defender. Pairs well with a QB who does the same

  11. So this is why we traded back, knew our guy would be there. I trust in Beane he will work out.

  12. We got the receiver I didn’t want in a draft loaded with WR talent. Maybe he’ll be a stud because the last time I was this distraught about a pick it was Josh Allen

  14. The last time the bills Mafia was this upset about a highly anticipated early pick he ended up on the cover of Madden….just saying

  16. Ill let Beane explain his thought process before I jump to a conclusion. He is smarter and has way more information than anyone here.

  18. Big strong physical receiver who plays hard and makes circus catches. Sounds great to me

  20. Y’all just got an absolute dawg. He was gonna be a star regardless of where he went, but now with Allen throwing to him, it’s in the bag

  21. Everyone talking about this guy as a pure athlete. Reminds me of DK Metcalfe in the receiver skills having flaws but the athletic talent absolutely being real.

    I feel okay about it.

  23. WalterFootball is obviously just one source, but you can’t read this scouting report and tell me it’s not incredibly positive: [https://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2024kcoleman.php](https://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2024kcoleman.php)

    Interestingly enough, Coleman’s only weaknesses (not a burner, not a big separation guy) are almost exactly the same as Justin Jefferson’s in the 2020 draft: [https://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2020jjefferson.php](https://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2020jjefferson.php)

  24. You guys are UPSET about this? Keon is LEGIT. He’s not known for getting separation but his game speed is super underrated and he has SURE hands. You’re gonna love him when he starts bringing in those 50/50 balls Diggs has whiffed on the last season or so

  26. To me the draft is about getting hype about whoever your team drafts and wishing them success. This hyper analysis and constant second-guessing is pretty off putting. 

  29. Every team is drafting for flash and speed right now and meanwhile it looks like we are trying to put together a high testosterone physical powerhouse. I love it. What’s more high T than playing in our elements??? With Josh Stallion?!?!

  30. Not in love with this pick RN but welcome to the bills Keon. Here’s to hoping he makes me look just as stupid when I hated the Allen pick

  32. Dudes some of the plays this guy has made, on X they are showing highlights, and this guy can play receiver makes a ton of awesome catches in traffic. When was the last time we had someone like that? Shakir but in a bigger frame?

  33. > Heart says WR Keon Coleman, Florida State. Second youngest receiver in the draft behind only Nabers. Great X receiver prospect with a 6-3/213 build, good arm length (32 1/8″) and good hand size (9 3/8″). Great hands, 5 drops in 3 years. Plays tough and with passion. Natural receiving ability, also has awareness and intelligence on the football field. Anyone bringing up Kelvin Benjamin (6-5/240) is unfortunately showing their ignorance, because while they both ran a 4.61 40-yard dash, Coleman has exhibited athletic ability and explosion well beyond Benjamin: 38″ vertical jump vs 32.5″, 1.54 10-yd split vs 1.67, etc. Outproduced 22-year-old Jayden Reed (2023 2nd round pick of the Green Bay Packers) as a 19-year-old. Anyone who doesn’t think Coleman can play, please check out college film of guys like Drake London, Michael Pittman, and Nico Collins.

    The heart prediction came true!!

  35. the main reason people are bashing this is his forty time. go read Brugler’s writeup about him owning corners with size, catch point, and body control. great pick.

  37. Josh Allen and Keon Coleman are going to be a match made in heaven, just you watch. Ppl are clowning on his 40 yard dash speed, but that’s irrelevant as he’s got the prototypical size and hands you want of a WR1. I’m happy with this pick.

  39. I went to fsu and watched every home game in person of Coleman’s last year. We got a STUD.

  40. There are better named wide receivers for sure. He looks slow because he is so tall. He plays fast. We will see.. I like that we got a WR, big outside WR. Just imagine if they took a DT!! 😂

  41. FSU fan coming to say – Keon is incredible. His 40 score is not telling of this guy’s ability at all. Keon was the best wide receiver FSU has had in probably 15-20 years, and his stats don’t show that due to other issues.

    He was hurt for the entire back half of last season and basically played through injuries. If he can stay healthy, I legit think Keon is easily a first round prospect.

    Another major thing that you guys won’t have a problem with – as much as I love Jordan Travis, he basically could not push the ball downfield at all this past season. Coleman is going to pair well with Josh Allen.

  43. 6’3″ 213lbs.

    NFL trainers can easily add 20 lbs in muscle without losing agility and speed.

    Can you imagine how many CBs or Safeties will be able to physically challenge this guy downfield?

    And without the hip-drop tackles…
