The Buffalo Bills have some impressive pieces, but are held back by poor quarterback play. That same QB issue hurts the Bills' fantasy football value. Whether it's E.J. Manuel, Tyrod Taylor or Matt Cassel, you need to avoid Buffalo's QB. LeSean McCoy and Sammy Watkins are solid, but the lack of a good QB limits them and prevents other players from reaching their fantasy potential.
Quarterback:
E.J. Manuel
Nope.
Matt Cassel
Nope.
Tyrod Taylor
Nope.
Running Back:
LeSean McCoy
McCoy has a lot of miles for a 27-year old back. He still finished 12th among fantasy RBs last year, despite not scoring as often as the other top backs. Although the Bills' offensive line is a downgrade from Philadelphia's, McCoy is still worth taking as a low-end RB1 or high-end RB2.
Fred Jackson
Jackson is the oldest back in the league, and with McCoy in town, he has limited value. Don't be shocked if Bryce Brown or rookie Karlos Williams cuts into Jackson's carries sooner rather than later.
Wide Receiver:
Sammy Watkins
Watkins was 25th among fantasy WRs last year and should perform even better with a full season under his belt. He needs some help from his QB if he wants to reach his WR1 potential. For now, he'll top out as a WR2.
Percy Harvin
Harvin has had issues staying healthy and a poor QB situation doesn't help him. Let someone else be disappointed by Harvin.
Robert Woods
If Buffalo finds a good QB, Woods has intriguing upside. But until that happens, there isn't much reason to draft him.
Tight End:
Charles Clay
Clay could be a decent fantasy TE like he was in Miami, but Buffalo's lack of a quarterback ruins that.
