Draft note

by John Paulsen

Shakir quietly delivered a solid season in 2024, finishing WR35 overall and WR42 on a per-game basis. Dig a little deeper, though, and there are signs of a potential breakout. He ranked 18th in yards per route run and an elite 5th in yards after catch per reception, showing he's making the most of his opportunities in a pass-heavy Buffalo offense. Matt Harmon of Reception Perception called him an "excellent starter as a slot option" and even floated the idea that Shakir’s career could follow a trajectory similar to Amon-Ra St. Brown’s. He plays with one of the best quarterbacks in the league in Josh Allen, and while the Bills did bring in Joshua Palmer and Elijah Moore, Shakir’s 6.7 targets per game should remain stable. The concern is that Buffalo still likes to spread the ball around, so a true WR1 leap might not be in the cards. Still, in the WR4 range, Shakir is a rock-solid pick with weekly WR2 upside.

Bills WR Keon Coleman struggles to begin training camp

Joe Buscaglia

Jul 24 · 2:37 PM EDT

On his first day back at camp, Keon Coleman was in a prominent role again, working with Allen and the first-team offense heavily, though he failed to deliver on several opportunities.

During team drills, Coleman had four targets result in no receptions. The first was against second-team cornerback Dane Jackson, with Jackson sticking on Coleman the whole way and not allowing a catch opportunity. Coleman later had two reps against top cornerback Benford, with Benford breaking up both passes in contested opportunities. Then, near the end, Coleman had a chance to catch a pass along the sideline against Tre’Davious White, only for White to break up the pass.

Fantasy Impact:

Buscaglia goes on to hit on Coleman's lack of separation, which had been an issue through the receiver's rookie season as well. If the sophomore continues to struggle, we could once again see him in a rotation, which will sap any sort of consistent fantasy production. Shakir's role is already locked in, but Palmer, a free agent addition, could end up seeing enough work to make him an interesting late-round dart throw.

BUF WR Khalil Shakir - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. New York Jets
Khalil Shakir had a rare dud of a game last week, breaking an eight-game streak of 7+ targets in a game where the Bills offense looked out of whack. He has a good chance to bounce back here but we should be a little trepidatious about his floor/ceiling combo at this point. Consider him a WR3 in Fantasy Championships.
