Our Thoughts

Keon Coleman's Preseason Player Analysis

Bottom Line

Coleman, only 21, isn’t a polished product.

He might be 1-2 years away from a true breakout.

For 2024, though, there’s clearly a ton of opportunity – if he proves ready. Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis leave a significant target share. Currently, there’s no obvious go-to option for this offense.

So consider Coleman a WR4 stash to begin the season – one with some enticing TD upside.

What We Learned Last Year

  • Coleman’s college career started at Michigan State, where he spent two seasons.
    • He posted a breakout 2022 (58-798-7) alongside current Packers WR Jayden Reed.
    • Coleman posted some solid market shares: 22.5% of the receptions, 27.7% of the receiving yards, and 30.4% of the receiving TDs.
  • He transferred to Florida State in early 2023.
    • Coleman’s production was unspectacular, though. While he popped as a TD scorer (11), he lacked week-to-week consistency.
    • Most notably, his market share of the receiving yards dipped to 21.9%.
    • Rookie Round 6 WR Johnny Wilson topped Coleman in yards per game, targets per route, yards per route, and yards per target.
    • Consider that Wilson was a senior – Coleman only 20 and in his first year with the program.
  • When right, Coleman effectively pairs a hulked-up frame (6’3, 213) with effortless ball skills.

What to Expect in 2024

  • The Bills lost 241 targets from the departures of Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis.
  • GM Brandon Beane said he allowed Allen to share his input on the rookie WR class.
    • Coleman was reportedly Allen's desired pick at 33rd overall.
  • He projects to play most of his snaps outside for a WR corps that includes Curtis Samuel and Khalil Shakir.
    • Samuel, 28, spent the past three years in Washington. After an injury-ruined 2021, he filled a short-range slot role from 2022-2023.
    • His contract ($15 million guaranteed) suggests he'll see a sizable role.
    • Shakir flashed down the stretch in 2023. It remains to be seen if Buffalo’s comfortable giving him more outside reps after playing primarily from the slot.
  • Dalton Kincaid enters year two with a chance to push for a target share north of 20%.
  • QB play is the least of Coleman’s concerns. Josh Allen remains squarely in his prime, and his ability to extend plays bodes well for the rookie’s TD upside.

Keon Coleman (Wrist) to Miss Another Game

Keon Coleman (Wrist) to Miss Another Game

Bills HC Sean McDermott told reporters Monday that WR Keon Coleman won't play Sunday against the Chiefs. That'll be the second straight missed game for Coleman. We'll see about his status on the other side of the Week 12 bye. ESPN's Adam Schefter added that WR Amari Cooper "is progressing." We'll see about Cooper's status as the week goes.

Bills HC Sean McDermott said Wednesday that WR Keon Coleman came out of the Week 9 win over the Dolphins with a wrist injury. Coleman won't practice on Wednesday. And, while McDermott wouldn't rule him out for this weekend's game vs. the Colts, he also said Coleman could be sidelined "more than just this week." We'll keep an eye on Coleman's status over the next few days, but he shouldn't be part of your Week 10 fantasy plans.

Bills WR Amari Cooper is inactive for today’s home game against Miami. Cooper was listed as questionable after putting in limited practices all week. Without the veteran, Buffalo will rely on Dalton Kincaid, Khalil Shakir, and Keon Coleman. Shakir and Coleman are WR3s with upside, while Kincaid projects as a top-10 TE. Meanwhile, Curtis Samuel is active. He remains off the fantasy radar.
