NFL Trade Rumor: Las Vegas Raiders and Atlanta Falcons emerge as potential landing spots for Buffalo Bills’ $10M WR

The Buffalo Bills’ star player, Keon Coleman, has had a few issues with the team and it seems he might just be traded ahead of the upcoming season. In the last few hours, the Las Vegas Raiders and the Atlanta Falcons have emerged as strong landing spots for the star player.While Keon Coleman has been linked to a number of rival teams in the last few weeks, the Las Vegas Raiders, the Atlanta Falcons and the Baltimore Ravens have reportedly been interested in the star player, as per NFL insiders.A few hours ago, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano predicted that Keon Coleman could be a relatively impactful addition to the Las Vegas Raiders and the Atlanta Falcons for the upcoming season.ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano noted in a recent report, “The Raiders don't have a big-framed receiver on their roster, which is one of the lone weaknesses of a skill position group that's otherwise well constructed. Coleman would join the depth chart behind Tre Tucker and Jalen Nailor, challenging second-year players Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton Jr. for snaps. Rookie QB Fernando Mendoza loved to throw back-shoulder balls to big-bodied receivers like Coleman during his time with the Hoosiers.”ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano added, “The Falcons are a logical fit because of where they are as a team -- starting over at head coach and GM, with long-term uncertainty at quarterback. They can afford to take a shot on Coleman's upside, and he would immediately add value to a receivers room that doesn't feature much after Drake London (Olamide Zaccheaus, Jahan Dotson and third-round pick Zachariah Branch). And if Coleman breaks out in Year 3, the Falcons would have him under contract for 2027, too.”Back in 2024, Keon Coleman signed a 4 year deal with the team worth $10.07 million after he was drafted by the team.For the Buffalo Bills, trading Keon Coleman might mean taking on a $2.07 million dead cap penalty to pay off his remaining bonus.For either the Las Vegas Raiders or the Atlanta Falcons trading for him, the team would only need to pay a cap hit of $1.71 million in 2026. As per reports, this amount only increases slightly to $2.16 million in 2027. While the Buffalo Bills would incur a penalty of $2.07 million, Keon Coleman has had issues with discipline in the team and his performance on the field.For the Las Vegas Raiders and the Atlanta Falcons, Keon Coleman seems pretty affordable which leaves them with more freedom to sign other high paying stars. Though Keon Coleman had a disappointing time in the last season, the 23 year old receiver could bounce back on the field in the new season.
