The Buffalo Bills just last week made the bold move of improving their receiving core with the acquisition of star playmaker Amari Cooper, and while that move has already paid off, the arrival of their rookie second-round pick in Keon Coleman is a pleasant surprise.

It was a big day for Coleman against one of the best secondaries in the league as he physically dominated every corner that went up against him, including the large and athletic Tariq Woolen. Coleman ended the day hauling in 5 passes, for 70 yards, and a one-handed touchdown over the top of Woolen in the endzone. Coleman looked like everything was starting to come together and has quickly established himself as a big-time threat on any given snap.
With Cooper staring opposite on the outside, and Khalil Shakir healthy again in the slot role, Coleman has picked the perfect time to emerge within this Bills offense. The narrative surrounding Buffalo and their lack of playmakers at receiver have quickly been flipped on its head as Josh Allen, and this offense look like one of the most intimidating groups in the entire league, and Coleman is only going to get better as the season goes on.
