An NFL trade idea sending a talented Indianapolis Colts player to the Buffalo Bills has been created.
The Buffalo Bills need to get QB Josh Allen a No. 1 WR this offseason and Gary Davenport of Bleacher Report proposed a trade to accomplish that goal.
Davenport proposed that the Bills trade for Indianapolis Colts WR Michael Pittman.
Buffalo Bills Get: WR Michael Pittman Jr., 2026 Round 6 Pick
Indianapolis Colts Get: WR Keon Coleman, 2026 Round 5 Pick
The Bills are expected to attempt to trade Coleman this offseason, which is why Davenport included the youngster in his trade idea.
Pittman, 28, finished with 80 catches for 784 yards and seven touchdowns in 2025. He's one of the most consistent receivers in the NFL despite never having made the Pro Bowl.
"Pittman hasn't been as productive the past two seasons as he was earlier in his career, but the seventh-year veteran has a pair of 1,000-yard seasons on his NFL resume," Davenport wrote. "Even if he's not the true 'alpha' wideout the Buffalo Bills so badly need, he'd be a sizable upgrade to the team's passing-game weapons. He'd also likely be amenable to an extension that would drop his cap hit in 2026.
"The Bills get a badly-needed offensive boost. The Colts save a whopping $24 million against the cap and add a young wideout in Keon Coleman, who has zero future in Buffalo. It's the sort of trade that makes so much sense that there's next to no chance it actually happens."
Pittman was the 34th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft out of USC. He has 485 receptions for 5,254 yards and 25 touchdowns with the Colts.
Pittman isn't a star, but he would be a great fit alongside Allen, Khalil Shakir, Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox. After all, you can never have enough talented wideouts on your team these days.
Buffalo lost to the Denver Broncos in the Divisional Round of the 2026 NFL playoffs. Allen is one of the best QBs in the league, but he still hasn't been to the Super Bowl.
The Bills promoted offensive coordinator Joe Brady to head coach after parting ways with Sean McDermott. It will be fascinating to see if Brady and Allen can reach the promised land together.
