Joshua Palmer 2025 Fantasy Football Outlook: Is Palmer a Viable Deep League Sleeper?
After spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Los Angeles Chargers, Joshua Palmer signed a three-year, $36 million contract with the Buffalo Bills this offseason. Palmer's best year with Los Angeles was a 72-769-3 effort he put together during his sophomore season in 2022. Every other year, he failed to eclipse 40 receptions or 600 receiving yards. Palmer now enters a very crowded Buffalo receiving room where he'll compete for targets with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Dalton Kincaid. The Buffalo passing game adopted a "spread the wealth" approach last year. This is likely to continue in 2025 and probably means Palmer doesn't carry much fantasy value outside of being a bye-week filler. However, the team saw something in Palmer that they liked and made an investment in him during free agency. He also gets the luxury of playing alongside reigning NFL MVP Josh Allen. If injuries strike the depth chart, Palmer could emerge as a viable WR3 or flex play. For now, though, fantasy gamers should feel comfortable leaving Palmer go undrafted in standard 12-team leagues. He's a good name to monitor during the first few weeks of the 2025 season.
