No. The Bills have a lot of good receivers, but they don't have a Calvin Johnson, A.J. Green, Larry Fitzgerald, or Julio Jones.
Stevie Johnson is the biggest wide receiver on the Bills, at 6'2 207 lbs.
Megatron is 6'5 236 lbs. He's the new NFL #1 wide receiver prototype.
Sidney Rice is 6'4 202 lbs. Offensive coordinators desire receivers on the outside that are tall, big and fast.
Tall is key, and the Bills don't have tall receivers on the outside edge. SJ13 has been working the inside of the field this year, not the outside.
Robert Woods, TJ Graham, and Marquice Goodwin are all players who can replace Johnson.
Stevie Johnson has an $8.5 million cap hit next year. That's a lot of money to pay a #2 wide receiver. If Jairus Byrd comes back strong, will the Bills let Johnson go? If Byrd does not play well, I think the Bills keep Stevie. Who gets the $8.5 million? Whoever plays better. But what if they both play very well? What do the Bills do? Sign both, they have the cap room. Having good wide receivers that can score is what the NFL wants.
Bills sideline reporter, Joe Buscaglia today said Johnson is at risk of getting released by the Bills next season. I hope he's wrong, but if the Bills draft this guy then maybe I won't mind so much depending upon where the $8.5 million goes. Rookies don't count much toward the cap.
Mike Evans is 6'5 225 lbs.
More touchdowns have been scored in the first 6 weeks of the NFL than ever before, and most of them came from wide receivers.
That being said, what's more important in the NFL today? A very good #2 WR, or a very good (maybe excellent) Safety to defend the pass?
Adavantage: Offense.
The NFL has a huge incentive to score more points, and make things more difficult for defenses because the more offenses score, the more money the NFL scores. Ratings bonus baby.
Cowboys vs. Broncos 90+ point offensive bonanza was amazing to watch, and the NFL creamed their pants.
Give Stevie the $8.5 million. He's played through injuries, and has been the best Bills receiver since Eric Moulds retired. He's only 27 years old, and if a man goes down he can play as the #1 and still beat the best cornerbacks in the NFL.
If the NFL's offensive orgy continues, $8.5 million for a number 2 WR will look cheap in 3 years.
