Just Days after the Brandon Beane NSFW diatriberThe Buffalo Bills won a new wide receiver.
The Bills concluded a one -year contract of $ 5 million with the large Elijah Moore recipient on Wednesday, according to Ian Rapoport from the NFL network.
Moore has spent the last two seasons of the League with the Cleveland Browns. He had 538 yards and a hit last season, which did not drag Jerry Jeudy into yards while the team did not go 3-14. Moore, who was selected for the first time by the New York Jets with the overall choice n ° 34 in 2021 of Ole Miss, became a free agent.

Although he has an average of more than 540 yards by receiving the season throughout his career, Moore should be an excellent addition for Josh Allen and the Bills this fall. If nothing else, it should help with the Beane fans.
The Director General of Invoices makes an appearance in a local radio program Earlier this week, and he responded to the criticisms that the team did not take a wide receiver at the start of the NFL draft. The Bills did not have a real N ° 1 receiver last season, but they always finished second in points scored in the regular season and Allen won his first MVP prize in career while obtaining the franchise in the AFC championship match for the first time since 2020.
Beane also said that the team did not avoid wide receivers in the draft of the NFL, but that they just liked no one available when they were standing. Instead, the team has chosen to spend its first five choices on defensive players, starting with the Maxwell Hairston corner half in the first round.
“Well, you were in 2018 about Josh Allen, you wanted Josh Rosen, and now you are making the receiver”, Beane said. “… We just scored 30 points in a row for eight consecutive games. A year ago, I ask you to ask why we did not have receivers, but I don't understand it now. Games.

Moore will now join Khalil Shakir – who has signed a four -year extension with the team This off -season – Keon Coleman, Curtis Samuel, among others, in the wider receptor room of the Bills. The team also signed Joshua Palmer for a three -year agreement, so Moore is not the only addition.
However, this group is without a real high high receiver. Obviously, Beane is good with this strategy given the path traveled by the team last season. However, if the criticism was brought to him and pushed the last addition, however, is not clear.
But until Beane leads the team to an appearance at the Super Bowl at the bare minimum – something they are painfully below the Allen era – he will almost certainly be criticized for something.
