What to look for

The wide receiver position will be under a microscope. The Keon Coleman reclamation project is under way, but Josh Palmer is hot on his heels and looking to be WR No. 3 in Buffalo.

There will also be questions about rookies and, more specifically, rookie WR Sklyer Bell, who, despite his strong start in the spring, has leveled off a bit as the dog days of camp have come his way.
