According to an NFL analyst, the Buffalo Bills could bolster their receiving corps by trading for Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. or Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. this offseason. Harrison Jr. has had two strong seasons to start his career, while Thomas Jr. had a breakout rookie year before struggling in his second season.

Why it matters

The Bills have struggled to replace the production of former top target Stefon Diggs since trading him before the 2024 season. Adding a game-changing wide receiver could help elevate their passing attack and offense as they look to reclaim the AFC East title.

The details

Chris Trapasso, a regular on the Bills' in-house radio program One Bills Live, suggested the Bills could pursue a trade for Harrison Jr., whose former wide receivers coach Drew Terrell is now with the Bills. He also mentioned the Bills could target Thomas Jr., who had a strong rookie season but took a step back in 2025.

  • Harrison Jr. has recorded 103 receptions for 1,493 yards and 12 touchdowns through his first two NFL seasons.
  • Thomas Jr. had 87 receptions for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns as a rookie in 2025, but his production dropped to 48 catches for 707 yards and 2 touchdowns in 2026.

What they’re saying

“Michael Wilson had a 1,000-yard season last year, they have Trey McBride, the tight end—those are the two focal points of the (Cardinals') passing offense. (The Bills could) offer maybe a couple mid-round picks to get Marvin Harrison Jr. Give him a change of scenery after two good seasons in the NFL to start.”

“There were some rumors or buzz right before the trade deadline that he was one of the guys Brandon Beane was targeting or maybe even called about.”

What’s next

The Bills will likely explore trade options for wide receivers this offseason as they look to bolster their passing attack.

The takeaway

The Bills have a clear need at wide receiver and could make a splash by trading for a young, talented pass-catcher like Marvin Harrison Jr. or Brian Thomas Jr. this offseason to help elevate their offense.
