Buffalo Bills: Offseason fantasy outlook
Wide Receiver – Kelvin Benjamin, Zay Jones, Andre Holmes, Jeremy Kerley
It’s hard to gauge what type of season Benjamin had last year. He played for two different teams after being traded form Carolina in the middle of the season. He then only had 32 receptions with the Bills, which averaged out to four receptions per game. That’s certainly not the impact the Bills were hoping for but it should help Benjamin to have a full offseason in Buffalo to learn the offense.
Benjamin is a big body that should be useful in the redone. He’s more of an asset in a standard league than a PPR. Benjamin is going around the 100th pick which isn’t all that bad of a value. He can be drafted as a depth piece with hopes of a breakout on the way in 2018. Jones is strictly a bench piece and not one that I’m going to chase all that much. This corps is not that exciting and that’s kind of the name of the game for the Bills. They need a quarterback to elevate the receivers and they might not have one on the roster for 2018.
Tight end – Charles Clay, Nick O’Leary
Clay might be a good streaming option on a given week and would also be a great option for daily fantasy as well. For a seasonal league, Clay is bottom of the barrel as far as tight ends go. He’s never played a full 16 games in any season. It’s hard to really recommend him because we have no idea how he’ll be used in a new offense.
In addition, Clay had nice chemistry with former quarterback Tyrod Taylor. He’s the type of player that you keep an eye on after the draft and could be an injury replacement.
