WR Keon Coleman, BUF (1 Viewer)

The funny thing about Coleman is that most owners didn't start him W1 and have started him the past two weeks :lmao:

Players like this are roster poison. Can't cut, can't start, (often) can't trade... In this case Coleman is still tradable, but his value will fluctuate wildly early this season based on his most recent performance. You could wait until he goes off next week, but then you won't want to trade him, fearing that he's finally broken out proper... From your bench! :lmao:

Still early. Coleman could definitely emerge as the Josh Allen WR1 by end of year. But early returns are now more question marks than answers. Even week 1 felt a bit flukey with those late game comeback stats he accumulated, including a VERY flukey TD.

ETA: I state the above to commiserate. While I don't have Coleman this year, it's not b/c I wasn't targeting him. And I have had many, many Colemans over the years!

I mean, you're not gonna have 15-20 studs, he has utility, he's a bye week guy and you hope you hit.

Most people didn't draft him to be a starter

I sold Coleman after week 1 in .5 PPR redraft.

Shipped off Coleman and Najee Harris.

Got Travis Hunter and Jaylen Warren.

I was skeptical about it, and it’s not like I’ve got two studs here that are auto starting… I do feel like both Hunter and Warren have some big upside.
 
He had a pretty bad drop last night and I feel like Josh doesn't fully trust him because of stuff like that. He also plays a lot smaller than he is.
 
I ended up dropping Keon this morning for Mariota (SF league where I have Daniels and JJ). Shakir was also dropped by another manager. Buffalo pass catchers just too hard to predict and Cook is cookin'.
 
I know we are all into instant gratification but giving up on a guy 21 games into his career seems like a false start. Redraft? sure get rid of the guy but Dynasty? Unless you are so completely loaded that this guy is your 10th or 11th WR then I don't really see the point in dropping him

You nailed this! I was in two days of negotiation trying to acquire this guy, that took far more hours than I care to admit. He wanted Etienne or Swift. I offered JCM. For context he is a big Commanders fan, who loves rookie RBs in general (he drafted Harvey & Henderson too) and told me he truly believes JCM will be the feature back by mid-season. It went back and forth for hours with iterations of Swift and for Coleman and etc. Ultimately it fell through. Thank goodness!

Told him today that I may not even offer Tracy for Coleman at this point.
 
For a guy picked outside the top 100 in fantasy, a high draft pick with a decent rookie year, and positive signs end of last year plus some good some bad to start this season...he's a clear hold IMO.
I agree, I am not looking to cut him in 12 teams or higher but he's also not in my lineup consideration either.

BUF spreads the ball around so much - Kincaid, Coleman, Shakir, Dawson, Shavers, Moore, the RBs - right now I'm not sure if I'd invest a ton in BUF assets beyond Josh Allen and James Cook. Coleman looks like a player though.

When they had Diggs, they were happy feeding him. I just don't think they see a player on the team who merits the kind of target rate we need for fantasy glory.
 
Another swing and a miss for me.
If you are talking redraft, I wouldn't be too down about it. He was a good risk. ADP price tag was pretty reasonable for a young player, 2nd round pick, attached to Josh Allen with some good athletic gifts and power 5 college success. We might have loss on this bet but if we keep making good bets like this over time, we will win more often then we lose.
 
The Bills are lacking speed at WR and Shaheed has been mentioned. But what what I want to know is why did they trade their 1st to the Chiefs, who took Worthy, if speed was a need? Then take the lumbering with limited skills Keon Coleman in the early 2nd?

IIRC, there were a lot of baffled folks why the Bills didn't select Worthy in the 1st. Maybe they gambled that he'd still be there in the early 2nd and lost. In any event though, the landscape is littered with coulda-shoulda-woulda draft picks.

Trading it to their arch nemesis Chiefs just magnified the stupidity.

The Bills passed on trading for a WR at the deadline to once again bet on Keon Coleman to take a late season leap... I don't know if it is coming

Despite giving Keon
- 11% more horizontal routes
- 7% more slot routes
- 5% more intermediate routes
- More motion and play action in the offense
- More 1st read and designed targets

He's posted a 5% lower separation win rate overall and particularly worse vs. MAN defense posting a 9% lower separation win rate
