The Buffalo Bills have one of the more favorable schedules in the NFL, despite facing several of the league's best teams. Buffalo will host the Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, Cincinnati Bengals, and Philadelphia Eagles. And ahead of the schedule release, the Bills signed wide receiver Elijah Moore, which made their room of pass-catchers much more complete. However, one analyst says he won't be a starter.

Matt Holder of Bleacher Report predicts that the starting receivers for Buffalo in Week 1 will be Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, and Joshua Palmer.

Moore had 61 catches in 2024 compared to Palmer's 39. Palmer is more of a field-stretcher, though, which makes him fit the WR2 mold a bit more. In terms of Coleman, Buffalo isn't going to give up on him quickly. If he struggles in the first month of the season, though, Moore should get more reps as the starter opposite Palmer.
