A proposed scenario from Mark Morales-Smith would send Coleman to Las Vegas for that sixth-round selection, with the Raiders potentially addressing other positions in the second round if they choose not to pursue a receiver in that spot.
Buffalo could entertain the trade if they view Coleman as surplus value at the moment; a sixth-round pick is a modest return for a former second-round pick, and there have been public signs of frustration around his fit in Buffalo. Some have questioned whether the Bills would be better off moving on.
Bills general manager Brandon Beane has suggested Coleman can mature and contribute when focused, but off-field issues have limited his opportunities; Beane emphasized the player’s talent when everything lines up and indicated there is no immediate pressure to move him.
Buffalo did add DJ Moore in the offseason, which shifts the pressure on Coleman and provides a clearer path for development without being the top option, a dynamic Beane has acknowledged while still noting Coleman’s remaining potential at age 22.
Overall, the scenario highlights how the Raiders could pursue a low-cost, high-upside addition at wide receiver, or choose a different route in the draft, while the Bills weigh whether a fresh start in Las Vegas could unlock Coleman’s upside as they prepare for the 2026 season.
