Bills’ Joe Brady Offers Positive Scouting Report On Joshua Palmer originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The Buffalo Bills’ offense last season was one of the better units in football, and with a “everybody eats” mantra, every player got their lick of the ice cream.
Still, there was something missing, and for most, that was a No. 1 receiver. Despite the Bills’ offense, under the guidance of Joe Brady, averaging 30.9 points a game en route to winning 13 regular-season games, more weapons were needed.
At least that was the thought, anyway.
Enter Los Angeles Chargers receiver Joshua Palmer, who was signed in free agency to help bring a speed and vertical threat to the offense.
As Bills OTAs have gotten underway, Brady has liked what he has seen from Josh Allen’s newest weapon.
“I’ve been a fan of Josh’s since he was coming out [of college],” Brady said. “He’s an intelligent football player, conscientious, wants to know the why and the big picture to everything. Kind of a seamless fit for our room, he’s a guy that can play all the positions, play inside, outside, it was a great get for us.”
Palmer will join a receiver room headlined by Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Curtis Samuel, and Elijah Moore, with Allen orchestrating what Bills Mafia hopes is another top-tier offensive unit in 2025.
Despite that collection of talent, some still want the Bills to go after another receiver, and one who can be at the top of the depth chart.
But Buffalo, per Over The Cap, only has $1.6 million in cap space, and last season proved the offense doesn’t need a No. 1 guy; the collection of talent proved it can get the job done.
Palmer is the new guy on the block, and he’s making a good impression in his new surroundings.
