Khalil Shakir Fantasy

Buffalo Bills wide receivers Khalil Shakir and Deonte Harty will compete to be the starting slot receiver in a more traditional 11-personnel look this summer at training camp. However, whoever wins the job could concede a lot of snaps to first-round tight end Dalton Kincaid, who is expected to be lined up a lot as a receiver in his rookie year. Shakir, Harty and Trent Sherfield can also play outside in the Stefon Diggs role if needed, and Sherfield and rookie Justin Shorter can both fill in for Davis if he were to miss any time. There is opportunity for Shakir and Harty to carve out a nice role for themselves in this offense, but it's unlikely to be a prominent fantasy one if Kincaid is as heavily involved as everyone expects him to be.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir never really earned himself a legitimate role in this offense. However, he was able to put together some nice outings during his rookie campaign. On Sunday, Shakir hauled in both of his targets for 40 yards in the Divisional Round loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Shakir has shown he is capable of doing more, which means he could be pushing for Isaiah McKenzie's starting slot spot. It'll all depend on what the Bills decide to do this offseason. Fantasy managers in dynasty leagues should hold onto Shakir as he could have more value heading into next season.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir hasn't been seen too often this season. However, he was asked to take on a bigger role with Isaiah McKenzie (hamstring) sidelined for Sunday's playoff matchup with the Miami Dolphins. The young wideout hauled in three of his five targets for 51 yards in the win. He continued to play a part-time role, but at least Shakir was able to make an impact in this game. Possibly, Shakir has some PPR value next week, assuming McKenzie remains out. Fantasy managers will have to wait and see what happens before the Divisional Round next weekend.
