Nick Easley

As mentioned previously, the wide receiver position has incredible depth but also has some new pieces this year that the team is going to try and get as many practice reps as possible with OTAs and preseason eliminated this offseason.

It is going to be important for players like Stefon Diggs, Gabriel Davis and Isaiah Hodgins to get as much work as possible with Josh Allen and also familiar with this offense. Considering this fact, the Bills would likely cut Nick Easley before the start of training camp.

Easley joined the Buffalo Bills last offseason as an undrafted wide receiver and projects to be a slot receiver in the NFL. Even though he played well in the preseason, he spent part of the year on their practice squad. The Buffalo Bills are just too deep at this position to think of a scenario where Nick Easley could earn a spot on the 53-man roster.
