The Buffalo Bills' receiver room has been the topic of much debate over the past couple of seasons, but now, it appears Josh Allen might finally have a group that can push for the Super Bowl.

The arrival of D.J. Moore to go with Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, Keon Coleman, and Tyrell Shavers is a good group, and one that Allen can win with.

But it appears not everyone thinks it is set in stone.

Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox thinks Palmer can be a potential post-June 1 move and has linked him to the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders.

That is odd.

Palmer out after one year?

I don't see it, as the Bills would then be weakening the one position they need to have strengthened.

A post-June 1 trade sees the Bills save $10 million and eat just $1 million in dead money. But who is giving up draft capital for a player like Palmer, who is coming off a year that saw him post just 303 yards from 22 receptions? Not many.

It was Palmer's first year in Buffalo, and injury spoiled it, so it makes sense for the Bills to go around again with No. 5.

Given their troubles at the receiver position, it wouldn't make much sense to move on from Palmer, because with the money you save, how will that help you in 2026? There aren't any difference-makers available now.
