Khalil Shakir News
Wednesday, April 15, 5:52 AM
Buffalo wide receiver Khalil Shakir has finished each of the past two seasons as a low-end WR3 in PPR formats, but following the Bills' acquisition of DJ Moore via trade, he has fallen to WR56 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. While Shakir is likely to see a decline in volume, the drawn converge and space created by Moore could further open up one of the strongest elements of his game. Shakir's 7.7 yards after catch per reception since entering the league in 2022 is an elite number, aided by his connection with Josh Allen in off-schedule moments. That chemistry could still make him a trusted target when plays break down, allowing Shakir to supplement some of his volume-based production with big plays. While his overall profile could shift from a high-floor, low-ceiling safety net to more of a boom-or-bust option, the 26-year-old Shakir should still find his way to fantasy relevance in 2026 and beyond, and is likely undervalued in dynasty circles.

DeMario Douglas News
Thursday, February 19, 5:04 PM
New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas had a disappointing third year in the NFL, even though his team advanced all the way to the Super Bowl. The 25-year-old pass-catcher had career lows in catches (31), targets (46), and receiving yards (447) while scoring just three touchdowns for the second straight season in 17 regular-season games. Quarterback Drake Maye was in the running for MVP honors in his second season, but Douglas just couldn't stand out in a crowded receiving corps that also included Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, and rookie Kyle Williams. His 447 receiving yards were fifth on the team, and he added seven carries for 21 yards on the ground. Douglas will be in a contract year in 2026, but with all of the above-mentioned receivers returning to New England, it's hard to envision Douglas becoming a strong weekly fantasy football option.
