Instant Fantasy Analysis - WR Khalil Shakir, Bills

Recommended Posts

Draft Profile

Team Fit: Shakir has a rare motor and can do a bit of everything on offense. (He logged snaps out of Wildcat, at running back, on jet sweeps and as a returner for the Broncos.) His concentration is particularly impressive in contested-catch situations. His 38 1/2-inch vertical jump shows up on film, but he rarely looks like he is moving like a receiver capable of running 4.43. As such, he may be limited to a possession receiver role in Buffalo. Shakir will not threaten Stefon Diggs, Gabriel Davis or Jamison Crowder this year, but he could surprise a bit if one of those three gets hurt.

I drafted him 29th overall in my rookie draft.  He reminds of Amon-Ra St. Brown.  A bit smaller.  Not necessarily a burner, but I'll be damned if he doesn't just get open all the time.

I have him 26th on my non-SF rankings, so I'm on board. You're right about him getting open so often.

well, hes in the right place to light it up.   once he adjusts to the pro game, he could be a player.

A younger plus athletic Cole Beasley is a fine WR 2 or 3 in PPR.  

I also think he could play outside if needed.  That would make him an option to get on the field if Diggs, Davis or Crowder miss time.

And if none of those three get hurt, then the guy doesn't stand a chance? Oh, this competition. But it's for the best, the players have to prove their right to play. 😎
