Cole Beasley 2021 Outlook
Beasley was named a second-team All-Pro in 2020, so his efforts out of the slot did not go unnoticed. Despite that, Pro Football Focus still put him in just such a category. PFF recently pegged each NFL team's "most underrated player" and for the Bills, Beasley was the pick. "Beasley is one of the most underrated players in the game," PFF's piece explained. "He is a phenomenal receiver and a great example of why you should focus on what a player can do rather than his limitations. Already one of the league's best route-runners, Beasley also caught nine of the 11 contested targets sent his way in 2020, the best rate in the NFL. ..." Last season no wideout caught more passes than Beasley out of the slot. As FantayPros.com noted, here are some names that Beasley topped in fantasy points: Cooper Kupp; Tee Higgins; Corey Davis; Marquise Brown; Tyler Boyd and Jarvis Landry. Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll schemes up great opportunities for Beasley to thrive on the inside, and the receiver has cashed in. Had he not missed the regular season finale with a broken bone in his leg, Beasley likely would have surpassed the 1,000-yard threshold for the first time in his career. Don't expect him to disappear this season.
Cole Beasley 2020 Outlook
Don't look now, but Beasley finished the 2019 season with more fantasy points than Curtis Samuel, Darius Slayton, Larry Fitzgerald, Mike Williams, Robby Anderson, Christian Kirk and Dede Westbrook. As FantasyPros' Mike Tagliere put it, "It's hard to say that Beasley shouldn't be considered higher in the rankings than he is." But there are reasons for the slide. Remember, the Bills' wide receivers improved greatly last year with the additions of Beasley and John Brown. In their first seasons with the Bills, the duo combined for 1,838 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns. But the Bills' front office obviously wants more, and this year made a big splash with the addition of Stefon Diggs as well as drafting Gabriel Davis in the fourth round and Isaiah Hodgins in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft . As Tagliere suggests, considering their respective roles, the arrival of Diggs will surely affect Brown more than Beasley, and the defensive attention that the two speedier weapons are likely to attract will benefit him. But Beasley is still very unlikely to match the 104 targets he garnered last year. That said, as a late-round flier, Beasley does have some bench value in PPR formats.
Cole Beasley 2019 Outlook
As Bleacher Report noted, Beasley has been one of the most reliable slot receivers in the league. Playing with Tony Romo and Dak Prescott, Beasley was highly efficient in the short to intermediate portions of the field, especially on third down. While he's never been a No. 1 or even a No. 2 receiver in the NFL, he was an essential part of the Cowboys' offense. The Bills signed Beasley to a four-year deal this offseason worth up to $29 million with $17 million guaranteed. The team also signed John Brown to a similar deal and Zay Jones remains on the roster, but considering the contract Beasley signed, it seems safe to assume that the Bills are going to ask him to do more than he did in Dallas. In fact, Buffalo News staffer Vic Carucci points out the play-calling and schematic philosophy of OC Brian Daboll is deeply rooted in the Patriots' approach. Given that, Carucci believes Daboll will want Beasley to be the Bills' version of Julian Edelman, meaning, if all goes as planned, Beasley will finish as the team's leader in receptions while the bevy of running backs does their part to help dramatically improve the ground attack while contributing catches from the backfield. While all of that makes sense schematically, throwing short passes isn't what QB Josh Allen does best.
