J.K. Dobbins News

J.K. Dobbins is on the Rise Following Back-to-Back Scoring Games

Wednesday, October 21, 5:47 PM

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins wasn't much of a fantasy option through the first few weeks of the regular season. The veteran back has turned a corner recently, which should give fantasy managers more hope. Dobbins has found the end zone in back-to-back games ahead of the Week 7 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Over that span, Dobbins has rushed for over 100 yards and has seen increased carries as well. It's beginning to look like the Broncos are trusting Dobbins more as the lead rusher, and RJ Harvey is doing a majority of the receiving work. Fantasy managers in need of a bye week fill-in should consider Dobbins, given his recent stretch of play.

Khalil Shakir News

Khalil Shakir's Recent Production Comes With Target Concerns

Saturday, October 17, 7:40 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has produced 162 receiving yards over his last two games despite a considerable difference in opportunities. He caught seven passes for 82 yards on eight targets against New England in Week 4, then needed just three receptions to finish with 80 yards against the Rams. A 57-yard gain in overtime accounted for most of that second performance. Shakir leads Buffalo with 26 targets through five games, but that works out to just 5.2 per contest, and he has yet to score a touchdown this season. The Raiders have struggled to contain opposing offenses recently, giving Shakir a reasonable chance to deliver another useful performance. Still, his production has relied heavily on yards after the catch and occasional explosive plays. He remains a WR3 or flex consideration in PPR leagues, particularly if Buffalo continues dealing with injuries at receiver.
