Bills WR Corps Ranked Among League's Best in PFF's Latest Reveal

The Buffalo Bills have one of the better groups of pass catchers in the NFL, according to a new countdown.

While the Buffalo Bills have struggled to give quarterback Josh Allen a consistent running game, new receiver rankings show that general manager Brandon Beane has put a top-tier group of pass-catchers around the face of the franchise. 

Pro Football Focus recently ranked the best receiving rooms in the NFL, and the Bills came in at No. 9 overall and No. 4 in the AFC. Here's what PFF had to say about why Buffalo was deserving of a top-10 spot on the list:

As long as Stefon Diggs is on the team, the Bills still have a top-10 receiving unit. Gabe Davis took a step back in production last season, but he can still be a solid deep threat and ranks top-five at the position in deep touchdowns since 2021. I think Khalil Shakir will be just fine in the slot, and they expanded their receiving ability at tight end by drafting Dalton Kincaid, who earned an elite 91.8 receiving grade at Utah last season, to a room that already had Dawson Knox.

Assuming whatever drama existed earlier this week has indeed been put in the rearview mirror, Diggs remains one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. In three seasons since being traded to the Bills, he's caught 338 balls for 4,189 yards and 29 touchdowns. 

The problem that the Bills have had is finding a consistent second star pass catcher to alleviate pressure on Diggs. Davis and Knox have had their moments of looking the part, but the hope in selecting Kincaid in the first round is that he steps into that role. The 6-4, 242-pound tight end had 70 catches for 890 yards and eight touchdowns in his final collegiate season at Utah last year.

Among teams in the AFC East, the Bills group of pass-catchers was ranked second-best, understandably falling behind the rival Miami Dolphins, whose talented receiving duo of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle earned them the No. 3. overall ranking on the list.
