Plus, find out how each new member of the Bills plans on contributing in his first year with the team.

Just days after Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane delivered an expletive-laden rant on WGR 550 to those who said the Bills needed to add more talent at the wide receiver position through the 2025 NFL Draft, the Bills added veteran wide receiver Elijah Moore on a one-year deal worth up to $5 million.

Moore represents solid value and is a low-risk, high-reward signing for Buffalo’s wide receiver room, and today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off with thoughts on what Moore can bring to the offense.

What can WR Elijah Moore bring to Buffalo’s offense?

Elijah Moore, a former second-round draft pick of the New York Jets in the 2021 NFL Draft, is coming off a season where he caught a career-best 61 passes for 538 yards and one touchdown with the Cleveland Browns.

Moore, 25, brings good speed to Buffalo’s wide receivers and while he has played with subpar quarterbacks so far in his first four years in the league, having Josh Allen throwing him the football could unlock Moore’s abilities as a dynamic weapon who can work his way open almost anywhere on the field.

While he has primarily played in the slot, Moore is also skilled as a boundary receiver, and his versatility should serve the Bills well. Moore is in the prime of his career and represents a big upgrade at the fifth wide receiver spot in Buffalo.
