WR Andre Holmes

6’4”, 210 pounds

College: Hillsdale (UFA with Minnesota Vikings)

28 years old, 6th season

2016 stats (OAK): 16 games, 14 receptions, 25 targets, 126 yards, 9.0 avg, 3 touchdowns, 9 first downs

2015 stats (OAK): 16 games, 14 receptions, 33 targets, 201 yards, 14.4 avg, 4 touchdowns, 9 first downs

A. I really like the Andre Holmes’ signing. When free agency began, the Buffalo Bills had a depleted receiving corps and were desperate for a No. 2 and No. 3 wide receiver. With Holmes, one of those spots is taken. Currently, he is a clear No. 2 on the roster, but the Bills are likely going to draft a top receiver in the draft. If they do, Holmes will likely drop to a No. 3 receiver, but will still be a big target for Tyrod Taylor week in and week out. I think Holmes has a productive season for Buffalo next year.. WR. Buffalo Bills. ANDRE HOLMES
