Outlook Khalil Shakir
Secure Slot Role in Buffalo Offers Reliable Flex Value at a Late-Round Discount
Operating as Buffalo's primary slot receiver, Khalil Shakir offers excellent stability in a high-powered passing game. After posting consecutive seasons of over 820 receiving yards, he continues to hold a secure role in the hierarchy alongside DJ Moore and Keon Coleman.
His current ADP has settled comfortably around 126.00 after some brief early-summer volatility. Fantasy managers currently roster him in 80% of leagues but are only starting him 30% of the time, confirming his market value as an elite bench option with spot-start appeal in PPR leagues.
Our models project another productive campaign for Shakir, forecasting 69 receptions on 95 targets for 759 yards and 4 touchdowns. While his upside may be capped by a crowded target tree, his high-efficiency floor makes him an outstanding draft-day steal at his current price.

Outlook Ricky Pearsall
Shuffled Depth Chart Clears Path for a Year-Three Breakout
Ricky Pearsall is positioned for a significant role in San Francisco's passing game following Brandon Aiyuk's placement on the reserve/left squad list. With Aiyuk out of the picture, Pearsall steps into a starting receiver role alongside newly-acquired veteran Mike Evans and Christian Kirk under quarterback Brock Purdy.
Our projections expect Pearsall to take full advantage of this vacancy, forecasting 57 receptions for 810 yards and four touchdowns on 95 targets. He has shown immense efficiency when healthy, ranking as a top-seven wideout in yards per route run prior to a knee injury last year. Staying on the field remains his main hurdle after consecutive ten-game campaigns.
Draft market trends show his ADP stubbornly stable around 94.0 in 1.0 PPR formats. Given his elevated depth chart standing and our projection of 163 fantasy points, Pearsall represents an outstanding draft-day value steal who could easily outperform his current mid-round price tag.
