Should Dynasty Managers Be Looking to Sell High on Khalil Shakir?

Sunday, June 14, 5:10 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has arguably been his team's most consistent pass-catcher over the past two years, averaging 74 catches, 770 receiving yards, and four touchdowns on 97 targets per season. Particularly in PPR-scoring formats, Shakir's reliability and consistency allow him to provide fantasy managers with a safe production floor. However, his upside is also limited by his lack of downfield ability, as he averaged just 10 yards per reception and 7.6 yards per target in 2025. Additionally, Shakir's target volume in Buffalo may be trending in the wrong direction following the team's offseason acquisition of veteran wide receiver DJ Moore. If the Bills get strong production from Moore and a healthier season from tight end Dalton Kincaid, Shakir could be siloed to a complementary role in the team's passing game. Given his limited ceiling and the shifting environment around Shakir in Buffalo, dynasty managers may want to explore selling high on him ahead of 2026.

Germie Bernard News

Germie Bernard Expected to Require Some Patience in Dynasty Leagues

Monday, June 1, 8:23 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Germie Bernard has an encouraging draft stock as a second-round pick and has drawn praise from the coaching staff, but his position on the depth chart could prevent him from having immediate fantasy relevance. Managers may need to exercise a little patience in dynasty leagues, as Bernard projects to open 2026 as the Steelers' No. 3 receiver behind DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr. That's not to say that he should be avoided in dynasty leagues, though. Metcalf has missed at least two games in each of the last two seasons, so injuries could strike at any time and result in Bernard taking on a larger role. Plus, as a second-rounder from Alabama, we know he's a talented player who could earn more playing time simply by producing this summer and early in his rookie season. Managers may have to be a little patient, but the upside is very encouraging. Bernard is a solid target at the end of the first round or start of the second round in 2026 rookie drafts. He ranks as the WR60 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
