The Buffalo Bills and their receiver needs are again set to be one of the most talked-about storylines this offseason. With the Bills able to get Josh Allen a No.
1 weapon in either free agency or the draft, there are options for general manager Brandon Beane.

NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah fielded his annual pre-scouting combine conference call and gave his idea of who the Bills should be targeting.
"They have to find a bigger body," Jeremiah said via NFL.com's Dan Parr. "They need a ball-winner, whether in free agency or the draft." "(Louisville WR) Chris Bell, you might get a discount on.
