K.J. Osborn

K.J. Osborn may not have Samuel or Chark speed but with a recorded 4.48, 40-time, he's still pretty stinking fast. He's also a former University of Buffalo receiver, so it would be a homecoming of sorts for him, despite having transferred to Miami later in his collegiate career. Osborn has spent his career with the Minnesota Vikings catching passes from Kirk Cousins, and while I'm a fan of Cousins, Allen would be an upgrade for Osborn.

During his four years with the Vikings, Osborn recorded 1,845 yards, 158 receptions, and 15 touchdowns. Please note that he didn't play at all during his rookie year, so all these stats are over the last three years. He has averaged 11.7 yards per reception throughout his career. Can Osborn feel that number two role for the Buffalo Bills? I'm not sure he's much of an upgrade over what we had with Gabe Davis and has someone who has had Osborn on his fantasy team, I can attest to the fact that he disappears from time to time as well. However, to be fair, he's never been a number two guy on an offense.
