Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods received a nod from teammate Sammy Watkins recently, as Watkins suggested Woods "has been open and needs to get the ball more often", according to ESPN's Mike Rodak.

Fantasy Tip: Some may believe Watkins is backing off his "responsibility" of being a No. 1 receiver, but a quick listen to the interview proves that is not the case. New offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn has been tasked with getting the ball into Watkins' hands more often, but he would do well to find ways to get other players like Woods more involved as well. Until that actually happens, however, Woods is no better than a WR5.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods had just two catches for more than 22 yards last year, and beat writer Jerry Sullivan believes QB Tyrod Taylor's love for the deep ball will lead to Woods being replaced as the No. 2 receiver.

Fantasy Tip: Woods' blocking ability will likely keep him on the field in Buffalo's run-heavy offense, but at best, he is a WR5. Don't be surprised if someone else emerges as the second-best fantasy receiver behind Sammy Watkins, but the depth chart is cloudy.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods (groin) played with a torn groin on both the left and right side for about half the season last year. Woods said he feels great now, though, and he looked more quick and explosive this offseason, too. Additionally, wide receivers coach Sanjay Lal said Woods' route-running is better than he's ever seen.

Woods said that his chemistry with QB Tyrod Taylor has also improved due to first-team repetitions with each other, and after playing together some of last season.

Fantasy Tip: It's easy to get hyped about a player during the offseason, but expectations should still be tempered for Woods. He'll probably be the Bills' No. 2 wide receiver, but he shouldn't be drafted as more than a WR5.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods has performed well during offseason workouts, and wide receivers coach Sanjay Lal said Woods has been impressive in his route running. He has been explosive off the line, quick in and out of breaks and acrobatic while going for passes in the air, according to BuffaloBills.com's Chris Brown.

Fantasy Tip: Woods should have a good chance to win the No. 2 receiver job during training camp and will be healthy for training camp. He should have a solid role in the passing game and will be a decent late-round option in most leagues.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods said he feels like he has his speed back this year and expects to be able to create separation from defenders.

Fantasy Tip: Woods has WR5 potential as the likely starter across from Sammy Watkins, and if Watkins' broken foot causes him to miss any time at the start of the year, Woods could be a sneaky play in daily formats.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods has looked explosive during offseason workouts after dealing with injuries in 2015, according to QB Tyrod Taylor.

Fantasy Tip: Woods should be one of the starting receivers in 2016 and likely will have a solid role in the passing game. Woods should be a late-round option in deeper leagues and may be used as a matchup play by owners.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods (groin) has been cleared to participate in offseason workouts after he underwent groin surgery this offseason.

Fantasy Tip: Woods is probably the top candidate for the No. 2 receiver job at this point but likely will have to compete with other receivers for the job. Woods posted 552 yards and three touchdowns in 2015 and probably should only be a late-round option in deeper leagues.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods was mentioned in a group of wide receivers by general manager Doug Whaley who are considered not to be No. 2 receivers. Whaley said the Bills have a mix of guys who may not be bona fide No. 2 receivers, but who they can use in different roles.

Fantasy Tip: Woods' play has been fairly lackluster over the course of his career. He has played well particularly when Sammy Watkins has been injured, but when Watkins is healthy there's not really another big receiving threat, as Whaley alluded to. Woods may still need to fight for a starting wide receiver position this offseason.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods (groin) will not play again in 2015 and has been placed on the Reserve/Injured list. He finished the season with 47 catches for 552 yards and three touchdowns.

Fantasy Tip: Sammy Watkins ($6,900, 13.8% of cap) will see more work but also more attention in these final two games. It's hard to predict who will step up opposite Woods, though, between the likes of Chris Hogan ($2,400, 4.8% of cap) and Marcus Easley ($2,000). Neither of them are worth a look on FantasyScore.

Buffalo Bills WR Robert Woods (groin) suffered a significant groin injury during the team's Week 15 game and probably will miss the rest of the season, according to head coach Rex Ryan.

Fantasy Tip: Chris Hogan likely will receive more targets with Woods out of the lineup but is not a great fantasy option for owners. Sammy Watkins is probably the only receiver on the team that fantasy owners should consider using in the last two weeks of the season.
