Khalil Shakir News
Wednesday, August 19, 11:47 AM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir keeps hanging around the later rounds, and the case for taking him there is pretty straightforward. He led Buffalo with 72 catches and 719 receiving yards on 95 targets last season, scoring four times. Josh Allen's first pass of the preseason opener went right back to him for 21 yards. DJ Moore changes the target picture, sure, but Shakir wasn't living on deep shots in the first place. A lot of his damage comes underneath and after the catch. RotoBaller has Shakir 125th overall in its Aug. 19 PPR rankings. That's a pretty cheap entry for a receiver who has led the Bills in receiving yards two years in a row. There probably isn't a monster breakout coming with Moore, Keon Coleman and Dalton Kincaid around. Fine. Shakir doesn't need one to pay this off. If you're looking for a late receiver who can actually make your lineup instead of just sitting there as an upside stash, he still makes plenty of sense.

Marvin Harrison Jr. News
Monday, August 17, 10:15 AM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. continues to show encouraging signs during his third training camp. Josh Weinfuss noted Monday that the Cardinals have seen growth from Harrison this summer, with the former fourth overall pick making some impressive catches and putting his natural talent on display. There have been flashes throughout camp, including a diving catch for more than 50 yards on a deep ball from Jacoby Brissett earlier this month. Harrison is coming off a difficult second season that was interrupted by several health issues. He finished 2025 with 41 catches for 608 yards and four touchdowns in 12 games while dealing with a concussion, appendicitis and heel problems along the way. His first two NFL seasons haven't produced the consistent numbers many expected when Arizona drafted him, but the talent has never really been the question. Harrison putting together stronger work this summer is a good sign as he looks to take a step forward in 2026.
