The Bills rookie wide receiver has risen up significantly on UnderDog from the Pre-NFL draft process to now.
Bills rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman has risen up draft boards significantly since the Pre-NFL Draft to today. Of note, Keon Coleman has moved up 60.9 spots from round 12 on UnderDog to round 7.
There is largely a bearish sentiment on Keon Coleman due to his inability to create separation ala Stefon Diggs. Psychologically, there is a difficulty reconciling Keon Coleman not being Stefon Diggs while having the issue of not offering the agility in route running his predecessor provided.
Josh Allen’s career took off once he had Stefon Diggs in town. The concern isn’t whether or not Josh Allen can thrive, rather if Keon Coleman can garner enough attention in the Bills offense to draw significant enough target share to warrant being selected in round 7. Tight end Dalton Kincaid goes in round 5 and is being hyped as the focal point in the Bills offense in the same vein as Travis Kelce is used on the Chiefs.
With the concern of Dalton Kincaid being the alpha target hog in the Bills offense, Coleman also has to deal with Curtis Samuel having an edge in experience having worked with offensive coordinator Joe Brady prior. Add in the Bills expected proclivity to run the ball more with James Cook and Josh Allen calling his own number, keeping a level headed approach when selecting Keon Coleman in drafts will prove wise. Incorporate a low 4-8% requisite exposure or fade all together, but don’t get caught with heavy bags on the Bills rookie wideout.

Reports out of the Bills’ first day of training camp have both Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox taking first-team reps pretty evenly.
Will the Bills real TE1 please stand up? Many fantasy experts and managers have been hoping that Dalton Kincaid would garner the full-time role as the Bills TE1 but Dawson Knox appears like he is not going anywhere. Both tight ends were heavily involved with the first team but it’s only the first day. Let the battle begin!
Last season as a rookie, Kincaid illustrated that he would be a threat for the coming years in the passing game, as he was targeted 91 times and brought in 73 receptions for 673 yards and two touchdowns. On the other hand, Knox only brought in 22 receptions for 186 yards and two touchdowns on 36 targets. Kincaid was the target leader among the two tight ends and should continue moving forward.
Both tight ends playing this season but Knox will be more the inline blocker, while Kincaid will continue to play the move tight end. With Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis no longer on the team, Kincaid should inherit being Josh Allen’s number-one target this Fall. Fantasy managers should disregard Knox’s involvement with the first team and keep drafting Kincaid as the TE5 with his overall ADP of 54.5.
