Round 4, 128th overall: Collin Johnson, WR (Texas)

Available players at this pick: Zack Moss, RB (Utah), Thaddeus Moss, TE (LSU), Leki Fotu, IDL (Utah)

The Buffalo Bills did upgrade the wide receiver position with Stefon Diggs but they are still lacking size at the position. There may not be a bigger wide receiver in this year’s class than Collin Johnson.

The former Texas Longhorn is 6’6″ and 222 pounds but as Lance Zierlein describes in his scouting report he does have below-average speed.  This is going to force Brian Daboll to get creative with Johnson and will need to pick his spots. He certainly can create mismatches and it might make sense for him to transition to tight end down the line.

As a rookie though, Johnson can be a red zone threat for this offense and could excel in that role.
