Buffalo Bills
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Somehow Shakir lasted all the way until the fifth round of this year's draft where the Bills selected him 148th overall, which could prove to be a steal for the team. However, the Boise State product starts his pro career in a crowded receiver room that features Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis as the clear-cut top duo, with Jamison Crowder, Isaiah McKenzie and Marquez Stevenson also in the mix. Shakir has the ability to emerge as a capable slot option down the road, but his fantasy impact may be limited out of the gate. Read Past Outlooks

Makes first-year strides
WRBuffalo Bills
January 30, 2023
Shakir finished the regular season with 10 catches for 161 yards and a TD catch over 14 games.
ANALYSIS
Shakir was pretty far down the pecking order in a potent offense, but he did well as a fifth-round rookie just to be part of a veteran team's rotation. He even appeared in both playoff games and had 40-plus receiving yards in each. While the Bills will have some changes this offseason, most of the receiving room should remain intact and there could be added competition if veterans Cole Beasley and Jamison Crowder return. Still, Shakir may have more athletic talent than anyone in the team's passing game outside of Stefon Diggs, so his career arc merits watching.
