The Buffalo Bills are getting stellar play from several rookies at the midway point of the 2024 NFL season.
Though his track record is far from flawless, Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane is generally quite strong with regard to his ability to identify and select talented players in all rounds of the annual NFL Draft.
His 2018 class, which included players that would find success in both Buffalo and elsewhere like Tremaine Edmunds, Harrison Phillips, Taron Johnson, Wyatt Teller, Ray-Ray McCloud, and, oh yeah, quarterback Josh Allen, is one of the best draft hauls in recent league memory. His 2022 class, rounded out by James Cook, Terrel Bernard, Khalil Shakir, and Christian Benford was also quite stellar.
Coleman, like Davis, sees his ranking drop once you factor in players outside of his position; the 21-year-old wideout is actually fourth among rookie receivers in receiving yards behind Brian Thomas Jr., Malik Nabers, and Marvin Harrison Jr. He ranks fifth in general rookie receiving yards, however, as Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers currently sits second amongst all rookies with 535 yards.
Solomon is perhaps the most surprising inclusion on the list, as he’s played on only 39 defensive snaps thus far this season. That said, he’s flashed in his scant opportunities, which is perhaps unsurprising given that he led the FBS in sacks last season at Troy with 16.
It’s, again, too early to claim that the 2024 NFL Draft will go down as another Beane masterclass, but it’s difficult not to be encouraged by the early performances of several players who make up the haul; Coleman and Davis have been everything that was advertised while Carter and Solomon have also looked promising.
