Stevie Johnson caught eight passes for 115 yards with a touchdown in the Bills' Week 15 loss to the Seahawks.

Johnson ate up the shadow coverage of Richard Sherman. His touchdown came on a pretty, bending corner route from 20 yards out. He also made catches with extreme degrees of difficulty, including one over the middle by the nose of the football. Johnson will push for double-digit targets as a WR3 against Sean Smith and the Dolphins next week.

Bills GM Buddy Nix suggested that a "big time, outside receiver" will be high on the team's wish list in the 2013 draft.

Specifically, Nix is on the lookout for a big receiver who can make tough catches even when covered. Stevie Johnson isn't a true No. 1 receiver -- nor is he paid like one -- while Donald Jones and T.J. Graham leave a lot to be desired at the second and third spots. The Bills' first priority is to find a solution at quarterback.

Heath, C Eric Wood, OL Chris Scott, WR Marcus Easley and DE Mark Anderson.

CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports that Stevie Johnson (hamstring, questionable) is expected to play on Sunday versus the Rams.

Johnson missed Wednesday's practice before returning to the field on Thursday and Friday. Coming off a two-catch, 18-yard effort against the Jaguars last week, Johnson is no more than a WR3 especially at less than 100 percent.

Stevie Johnson (hamstring) is listed as questionable to face the Rams in Week 14.

Coach Chan Gailey said Johnson did better in Friday's practice, but the team's medical staff still wants to see how the hamstring is holding up Saturday morning. Barring a setback, we still expect Johnson to play at less than 100 percent health and effectiveness. He's no better than a borderline WR3 option for Week 14.
