Bills Mafia, hold onto your seats—because while the blockbuster trade for DJ Moore from the Chicago Bears has injected some serious star power into the Buffalo Bills’ offense, it’s not time to pop the champagne just yet. Moore steps in as the clear No. 1 wide receiver, filling the void left by Stefon Diggs, but let’s be real: Josh Allen needs more weapons to truly unleash his MVP-level potential. The 2025 season exposed some glaring weaknesses in the receiving corps, with Khalil Shakir leading the team at a modest 719 yards—solid for a slot guy, but not enough to strike fear into defenses.

After dumping Curtis Samuel and shaking up the roster, Buffalo can’t afford to stand pat. Free agency and the NFL Draft offer prime opportunities to bolster the group, helping Moore integrate seamlessly into his first year in Orchard Park. But beware, Bills fans: these additions could make the offense downright explosive, potentially overwhelming opponents and finally breaking that Super Bowl drought since 1994. Here are three standout options that could transform the Bills’ receiver room.

1. Calvin Austin III, Pittsburgh Steelers (Free Agency)

Don’t sleep on Calvin Austin III—he might just be the steal of free agency that no one’s talking about. This speedy wideout has been buried in Pittsburgh’s quarterback carousel, catching passes from a whopping seven different starters in his first four NFL seasons, including Mitchell Trubisky, Kenny Pickett, and even Aaron Rodgers. That’s no way to showcase elite deep-threat skills.

Drafted in the fourth round out of Memphis in 2022, Austin has quietly amassed 1,100 yards on 84 catches with eight touchdowns, ranking 12th among receivers from his draft class. Imagine pairing his vertical speed with Josh Allen’s cannon arm—routes that were stifled in Pittsburgh could become game-changers in Buffalo. At 5-foot-9 and lightning-quick, Austin adds a dynamic element that complements Moore’s route-running precision and Shakir’s slot reliability. Signing him won’t break the bank, making him a low-risk, high-reward move to ease Moore’s transition by drawing coverage deep.

2. KC Concepcion, Texas A&M (NFL Draft, Pick No. 29)

If cap space is tight post-Moore trade (and it probably is), the draft is Buffalo’s best friend. Enter KC Concepcion, the Texas A&M standout who’s got Bills roots written all over him. Born and raised in Rochester, New York, Concepcion was interviewed by Buffalo at the NFL Scouting Combine, and get this—his dad raised him as a die-hard Bills fan. Talk about a homecoming!

What makes Concepcion a perfect fit at pick No. 29? His yards-after-catch (YAC) wizardry. Last season, he racked up 440 YAC yards (sixth in the SEC) and forced 14 missed tackles (tied for seventh). That’s the kind of elusiveness that could learn from Moore’s own after-catch prowess, creating a mentor-mentee dynamic right out of the gate. At 6-foot-1, he’s got the size and speed to line up outside or in the slot, giving offensive coordinator Joe Brady endless options. Drafting Concepcion isn’t just about talent—it’s about building chemistry and loyalty, helping Moore feel like part of a family from Day 1.

3. Ted Hurst, Georgia State (NFL Draft, Pick No. 91)

Looking for a Day 3 gem who could develop into a star? Ted Hurst from Georgia State is your guy, potentially available at pick No. 91 in the third round. This 6-foot-3, 185-pound “X” receiver brings the contested-catch ability that Buffalo desperately craved when they drafted Keon Coleman in 2024—only for that experiment to fizzle out.

Hurst’s journey is the stuff of underdog legends: a zero-star recruit who started at Valdosta State before transferring to Georgia State, where he dominated with his leaping ability and strong hands in one-on-one battles. Pair him with Moore’s shiftiness and Shakir’s quickness, and you’ve got a trio that covers all bases—deep threats, YAC monsters, and red-zone nightmares. Hurst won’t need to start immediately, allowing him to learn under Moore’s wing and NFL coaching. Beware, AFC East rivals: this addition could turn Buffalo’s offense into a well-oiled machine, making Moore’s Year 1 adjustment as smooth as a Josh Allen scramble.

Bills Mafia, the acquisition of DJ Moore is a massive win, but stopping there would be a mistake. These three targets—whether through free agency or the draft—offer the depth and versatility needed to maximize Allen’s talents and propel Buffalo toward that elusive Lombardi Trophy. The receiver room upgrade isn’t just helpful; it’s essential. Get ready, because if general manager Brandon Beane pulls the trigger on any of these, the Bills could be unstoppable in 2026. Go Bills!
