During the 2026 NFL offseason, the Buffalo Bills are exploring trade options for their wide receivers. Following recent acquisitions, including DJ Moore, analysts suggest trading Josh Palmer, who signed a three-year contract worth $29 million. With a disappointing season in 2025, Palmer's market may be limited, and trading him could free up around $10 million in cap space. Analysts believe the Bills should retain Keon Coleman and focus on moving Palmer to realign their wide receiver corps and roster flexibility ahead of the trade deadline.
