Bell is old for a rookie, turning 24 this summer, but in this case it shouldn't necessarily be equated with a lack of upside. He spent three years at Wisconsin in a horrific environment for receiving production before finally breaking out at UConn in 2024 (50-860-5). Bell followed that up with a gargantuan 2025 effort, ranking Top 5 among all FBS players in targets (144), catches (101), receiving yards (1,278) and receiving TDs (13). His star continued to brighten at the 2026 NFL Combine, where he posted a 4.40 40-yard dash, a 41-inch vertical and a 131-inch broad jump at 6-feet, 192. The Bills took a shot on Bell in the fourth round this spring, 125th overall, after trading for DJ Moore earlier in the offseason. Moore and slot man Khalil Shakir are the safe bets for playing time, if healthy, while Bell may have to compete with some combination of Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer and Tyrell Shavers.
