The Buffalo Bills<\/a> finally addressed the glaring receiver issue this offseason, with D.J. Moore coming to the franchise.<\/p>\n

Allen gets a top receiver to go with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer, and Tyrell Shavers.<\/p>\n

Is that enough to get the Bills over the playoff hump? So think so, others don’t.<\/p>\n

But could the Bills go back to the receiver well during the NFL Draft?<\/p>\n

Fox Sports’ Ralph Vacchiano has named Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a> receiver Brian Thomas Jr. as a potential target for the Bills.<\/p>\n

“Yes, the Bills already got WR D.J. Moore from Chicago for a second-round pick,” Vacchiano wrote<\/a>. “But they need to do better for QB Josh Allen, so why not go all-in on their biggest need and turn it into a strength? The Jags say they won\u2019t trade Thomas, even after a terrible season, but they don\u2019t have a first-round pick, so if the Bills dangle their first-rounder, maybe Jacksonville will change its mind.<\/p>\n

“With Allen, two top receivers and RB James Cook, the Bills’ offense might be impossible to stop. And if they can finally end their Super Bowl drought, it would be well worth the price.”<\/p>\n

Could Bills get Thomas Jr.?<\/p>\n

They could, but the Jaguars aren’t in the business of letting Thomas Jr. go after one poor season, and if the Bills did come calling, Jacksonville’s asking price would be quite high.<\/p>\n

But if Buffalo is intent on making the most of this window with Allen, then going after a player like Thomas Jr. is the right way to go.<\/p>\n

Vacchiano has the Bills parting way with their 2026 first-round pick (No. 26) in exchange for Thomas Jr., so the Jaguars might like the idea of having two first-round selections in the draft.<\/p>\n

Either way, this seems hard to pull off, but if the Bills did, and got Allen Moore and Thomas Jr. in one offseason, Buffalo might just be Super Bowl favorites.<\/p>\n
