The Buffalo Bills have generally pushed back on the idea of trading Keon Coleman.
That hasn't fully stopped the speculation, though. After two bumpy NFL seasons so far, and odd offseason comments from Bills owner Terry Pegula, Coleman still seems like a guy who could find himself leaving town at some point.
If that happens, there would likely be multiple interested teams. Coleman is a former second-round pick with impressive athletic traits. There's still reason to believe he can become a quality wideout.
With that in mind, a new ESPN article tried to figure out where Coleman could land in the case of a trade, and four teams were named:
- Baltimore Ravens
- Washington Commanders
- Las Vegas Raiders
- Atlanta Falcons
The Ravens, Commanders and Raiders were all suggested to offer a fifth-round pick for Coleman.
The Falcons proposal was a fourth-round pick for Coleman and a sixth-round pick.

ESPN's Bills beat writer, Alaina Getzenberg, offered her assessment of the four offer and wrote that none would get a trade done.
"Coleman has said he understands what is on the line this season, and the Bills are currently committed to giving him this chance," Getzenberg writes. "Whether it can all come together in Buffalo, however, is still a big question."
It makes sense that teams wouldn't offer more than a mid-round pick for Coleman.
But if that is the available market, it also makes some sense for the Bills to stand firm. They'd really benefit from Coleman panning out in the present, rather than pushing back for some future asset. Holding firm might be a risk worth taking with Coleman at this point.
