The Buffalo Bills have to undergo a major overhaul of the wide receiver position in 2019. There are plenty of options available.

The wide receiver position was a disaster for the Buffalo Bills throughout the 2018 season.

Things did start to improve at the end of the season, but it was clear that the team enters the offseason without a true number one receiver on the roster.

Zay Jones and Robert Foster should be locks to get regular playing time in 2019. Isaiah McKenzie has earned himself a roster spot, yet he could be pushed out of playing time if the team makes several good additions.

The problem in 2018 was continuing to rely on Kelvin Benjamin as that number one guy. It was clear right away that he would never be that guy in Buffalo. Yet when undertaking a rebuild, I suppose people who once had great potential get more leeway.

That would explain why both Corey Coleman and Terrelle Pryor had brief stints with the Bills. If you forgot they did, I don’t blame you.

There are plenty of options available to improve the group, so we look at that and more in today’s edition of The Morning Charge.
