Skeptical Projections Contrast Offseason Reassurance for Keon Coleman

Keon Coleman enters a self-proclaimed make-or-break year after a disappointing 2025 sophomore season where he managed 38 receptions for 404 yards and four touchdowns. While he spent time benched last season, offensive coordinator Joe Brady has reassured Coleman of a defined role. He currently sits behind star offseason addition DJ Moore on the left wide receiver depth chart.

From a market perspective, Coleman's ADP in 1.0 PPR leagues has steadily climbed from outside the top 300 in early May to around 271. While managers are warming up to his late-round appeal, our models remain highly skeptical. We project him for just 18 catches, 253 yards, and two touchdowns, making his rising draft cost a potential reach.

To outperform our expectations, Coleman must outproduce fellow pass-catchers like Joshua Palmer and Khalil Shakir. Ultimately, Coleman is a volatile, touchdown-dependent bench stash whose value rests entirely on capturing a consistent outside receiver role.

Outlook Khalil Shakir

Underappreciated Slot Anchor Offers Significant Value as ADP Climbs

Khalil Shakir enters the season established as the primary slot receiver in a Bills passing offense led by Josh Allen. Operating alongside DJ Moore and Keon Coleman, Shakir provides a highly efficient safety valve who already has a strong rapport with his quarterback.

His draft stock is rising, climbing from an ADP of 144 in early May to around 133. Despite this growing hype in PPR formats, our projections still view him as a value steal. We expect him to grab 70 of 92 targets for 728 yards.

While his touchdown upside remains limited in a crowded offense featuring Dalton Kincaid, Shakir provides a safe weekly floor. Slotting him in as a late-round depth piece offers excellent roster flexibility and dependable weekly volume.
