"The summer of Keon Coleman continues," writes SI.com Bills writer Alex Brasky. "Coleman has dominated training camp, and that continued with a couple of touchdown receptions during Friday's joint practice with the Bears." Coleman managed just 29 catches for 556 yards and 4 TDs as a second-round rookie and cracked the top 36 fantasy WRs just three times among 13 appearances. But flashed upside in his red-zone usage, downfield game, and after-catch production.
Josh Allen: "We've gotta have a guy that can go win. He's consistently done that this camp. We're still seeing a lot of growth in his game and just the nuance to playing the receiver position and doing the things that we are asking him to do, and he's taking it in stride right now. He's having a really good camp."
We've been excited about the upside on Coleman throughout draft season. That's why you can find the second-year Bill among our fantasy football sleepers.
Coleman's enormous 19.2 yards per catch as a rookie combined his downfield role (34% of his targets traveled 20+ yards in the air) and his 7.7 yards after catch per reception. That ranked fifth among 84 qualifying WRs, according to Pro Football Focus.
The final upside component here is situation. Khalil Shakir emerged as the 2024 target leader but ranked just 39th among WRs in target share. That leaves room for Coleman to climb. Though Buffalo's "spread it around" approach could also limit the ceiling.
Coleman's ultimately going late enough in drafts -- WR50 in consensus PPR ADP -- to be well worth a shot in your drafts.
