The Buffalo Bills made a significant addition to their wide receiving corps when they traded for Amari Cooper ahead of the NFL trade deadline. However, with Cooper set to become a free agent after this season, the Bills may need to start thinking about a contingency plan.
Bleacher Report’s Alex Ballentine suggests that the Bills could target Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown, who is also set to become a free agent after this season. Brown has already reached career highs with 16 catches for 171 yards this season, adding one touchdown catch.
While Brown’s production may not be impressive, Ballentine believes that the Bills could sign him based on his potential and see if he blossoms with Josh Allen as his quarterback. “Targeting someone like Dyami Brown would give them a younger free agent who could develop into a better player,” Ballentine wrote.
In the meantime, the Bills will need to expand Cooper’s role in the offense as the season goes on. Cooper made some key plays in the team’s win over the Kansas City Chiefs, but still plays a smaller role in the offense. The Bills may have had a chance to get Cooper more acclimated over the bye week, and will return with a chance to clinch the AFC East.
