2025 Season Outlooks

Will Fantasy managers dare trust Palmer after the case was made for a breakout season last year? That's even more doubtful now that he's in Buffalo, where he'll tangle for targets with plenty of competition including Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman. Palmer's touchdown production has dropped each of his four years in the NFL in large part because he's struggled to see meaningful playing time. Fantasy managers are likely to not bother drafting Palmer this season, instead opting for him off waivers if he does the unthinkable and earns regular targets in the Bills offense.

Palmer signed with the Bills during free agency after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Chargers. The 2021 third-round pick peaked with a 72-catch, 769-yard showing back in 2022, but that was only good enough for a 43rd-place finish in fantasy PPG. He's seen his TD total decrease each year since a career best four in 2021 and has missed 10 games due to injury over the last three seasons. The 25-year-old will battle with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Curtis Samuel for wide receiver reps and is a long shot for consistent targets. He may occasionally make for a flex dart throw, but that's likely his ceiling.
