Stevie Johnson can't carry the load of the entire wide receiver position by himself, but who's going to step up and help him?
That's one of the biggest questions the Buffalo Bills face heading into training camp, and it's one that will be highlighted during a battle involving a deep core with talent yet unproven potential at the position. The Bills need someone to step up more than any other team in the NFL—they had three wide receivers on the field 77 percent of the time and four wide receivers 32 percent of the time last season, both the highest percentage in the league according to Mike Clay of Rotoworld.
Johnson and slot receiver David Nelson should still be the top two targets in the offense, but the Bills are looking less for a "No. 2 receiver" and more for a skill set. Specifically, the Bills have a need for speed.
