Khalil Shakir News
Thursday, March 5, 7:35 AM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir has led the team in targets and receiving yards in each of the past two seasons, but given the team's reported acquisition of Bears receiver DJ Moore via trade, that streak is likely to come to an end in 2026. Shakir has been a fantasy-relevant depth piece over the past two seasons, largely due to his safe, volume-dependent floor while the Bills struggled to find an Alpha receiver to fill the shoes of Stefon Diggs, who last played for the Bills in 2023. In Moore, they appear to have found that Alpha. While Shakir and Moore do play complementary games, and the spacing provided by a true outside threat could help Shakir see more spike games, his reliable floor will likely become a thing of the past, making him a difficult-to-trust weekly play moving forward.

Jayden Reed News
Friday, February 27, 8:30 AM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed had his 2025 season thrown off track by injury, as collarbone and foot ailments limited him to just seven games played. Across those contests, the 25-year-old hauled in 19 catches for 207 yards and one touchdown on 22 targets. Before 2025, Reed flashed upside in his first two NFL seasons, recording over 1,900 scrimmage yards and 17 total touchdowns. However, he's struggled to carve out a high-volume role in the Packers offense, which typically spreads the ball around to multiple pass-catchers. Across 40 career games with Green Bay, Reed is averaging 4.8 targets per contest. Packers wideout Romeo Doubs is set to hit free agency, and start tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) is currently recovering from a torn ACL, so Reed's path to playing time could be clearer in 2026. He will still have to contend with Green Bay wideouts Christian Watson and Matthew Golden for targets, but a fully healthy offseason could put Reed in position for a breakout year. In dynasty formats, Reed could be a solid buy-low candidate coming off his injury-marred 2025 campaign.
