Given Baltimore's strong run defense (allowing just 3.8 yards per rush), the source expects the Bills to attack via 11 personnel grouping more often, which should generate plenty of targets for Shakir. Shakir is on pace for 62 catches, 821 yards, and three touchdowns on 91 targets—his lowest totals since 2023 when Stefon Diggs absorbed majority targets. The source likes Buffalo's slot targets (Shakir and Dalton Kincaid) against Baltimore's interior defense, especially Shakir if the Ravens use safety Kyle Hamilton to neutralize Kincaid. Shakir is dangerous in space and can operate at all levels to create mismatches.

Given Baltimore's run defense allowing just 3.8 yards per rush, the source expects the Bills to attack via '11' personnel grouping more often, creating plenty of targets for Shakir. Shakir is on pace for 62 catches, 821 yards, and three touchdowns on 91 targets—his lowest totals since 2023 when Stefon Diggs absorbed the majority of targets. The source particularly likes Shakir this week if the Ravens use safety Kyle Hamilton to neutralize tight end Dalton Kincaid, as Shakir is dangerous in space and can operate at all levels of the defense.

Khalil Shakir is WR45 in fantasy points per game but has posted at least 11 PPR points in each of his last three games. Over that span, he has a 18.8% target share, 2.68 YPRR, two red zone targets, one deep target, and 24.1% first-read share. Against Baltimore's two-high coverage (62.4% rate), Shakir has 21% TPRR and 2.07 YPRR. Baltimore has allowed the 10th-most yards per target and 7th-most receiving fantasy points per game to slot receivers over their last five games, making Shakir a strong flex play.

Shakir is a compelling GPP stacking pick with Allen. Among seven Bills with at least 50 routes this year, he leads the team with a 55.2% slot rate. The Ravens have allowed the sixth-most DraftKings points per game (14.0) and FanDuel points per game (11.6) to slot wide receivers this year. In his previous three games, Shakir has posted an 18.8% target share, 0.22 TPRR, 4.7 receptions per game, 65.3 receiving yards per game, 2.68 Y/RR and one receiving touchdown, resulting in 12.87 DraftKings points per game and 10.53 FanDuel points per game.

Shakir is finally staying on field long enough to use as a PPR flex. Buffalo has him in motion at snap on 25% of routes (fifth among 88 qualified receivers) with 56% slot alignment. Screens give Josh Allen quick throws, and Buffalo moves him before/at snap on 31% of routes. Allen has found him on play-action. Route share has reached 83% over last three games. Receiver Score is holding but wants to see if he keeps playing time when Moore returns.

Khalil Shakir is the high-floor, low-ceiling option among the Bills' WR corps. Shakir is averaging 5.3 targets a game but has had six or more targets in four of Buffalo's first six contests. The 26-year-old Shakir is averaging 3.7 catches and 48.3 receiving yards per game. He's scored only one touchdown in 2026 and has never had more than four TDs in a season. Shakir has a solid matchup against the Ravens in Week 8; the Ravens play two-high safety coverage at the fifth-highest rate in the league, and Shakir is averaging a solid 0.47 PPR points per route run against two-high.
