    Coles could be back in Bills mix… again

    About a year ago the Buffalo Bills were attracted to then-free agent wide receiver Laveranues Coles. The former New York Jet visited Buffalo last March and the Bills were ponied up a contract offer. The sides couldn’t agree on terms and ultimately Coles inked a four-year deal with the Cincinnati Bengals on March 4.

    Twelve months later the Bills and Coles may cross paths again. Buffalo is very likely to be in the market for a number two receiver and according to a Cincinnati beat writer, Coles is likely to be looking for employment

          If he came cheap and we knew we were going to get anything out of Hardy, he would be a good fit. Upgrade over Reed, even with the season he just had. He is a disciplined route runner, and although he's past his peak physically, he's the kind of receiver that can get it done in his later years. Problem is, we'd need to be confident in Hardy to make it work... and it's hard to say we are at this stage of the game.

            Can we please develop our own talent. Hardy and Johnson could have had a lot of experience by now if it weren't for a conservative coaching staff that have nightmares about giving young guys a shot.

            LC is nothing special and would only prevent the development of our youth.

              Awful w/ Carson Palmer= Good with Edwards/whomever?

              We have to find out what we have with Hardy and Johnson.

                Completely agree. I wouldn't mind getting him as purely a slot receiver (if Reed leaves). Hardy and Johnson deserve some playing time.

                I want to see a coaching staff that finally understands that we need to develop the young talent in order to win.

                  IF Johnson is going to pan out, he's going to need a year as a situational receiver. I can't see him being productive the first year he sees the field (which would be the upcoming season). We're going to need someone to fill the slot for a year or two until he's ready to become the #3.

                        Not true, with plenty of rookie WR's over the last few years producing right out of the gate, there is no reason Johnson who has been around for 2 years can not be productive.

                          He had 5 TDs this year. Same with TO, I think that hed be a good slot WR for us. If you remember Chris Henry and 85 were the WRs and Coles was purely slot.

                            Thank god our FO didn't take their eye off the "old washed up WR that no one else wants" marketing angle. I can't wait to get my coles jersey.

                              Henry was the 4th receiver all year Mitchell. I had him in fantasy and kept a close eye on him. Andre Caldwell was ahead of Henry even.
