"Palmer signed with the Bills during free agency after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Chargers. The 2021 third-round pick peaked with a 72-catch, 769-yard showing back in 2022, but that was only good enough for a 43rd-place finish in fantasy PPG. He's seen his TD total decrease each year since a career best four in 2021 and has missed 10 games due to injury over the last three seasons. The 25-year-old will battle with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Curtis Samuel for wide receiver reps and is a long shot for consistent targets. He may occasionally make for a flex dart throw, but that's likely his ceiling."


"The initial report has it as a three-year, $36 million deal with half the money guaranteed. A 2021 third-round pick, Palmer never had more than 769 receiving yards or four TDs in a season for the Chargers, but he capably handled different roles under three offensive coordinators. In 2022, he had a 72-769-3 line on 107 targets at an 8.7 aDOT. In 2024, he had a 39-584-1 line on 65 targets at a 15.2 aDOT. The Bills need a downfield presence more so than another possession receiver, but it's nonetheless tough to predict exactly how they'll use Palmer, apart from the size of his contract suggesting he's expected to be a starter and play a lot of snaps. Then again, the same thing was said when they signed Curtis Samuel to a three-year, $24 million deal last offseason. Palmer at least is much younger than Samuel, turning 26 in September, and there's been no indication that Palmer's foot injury from late in the 2024 campaign will be an issue for 2025."
