BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX
ANALYSIS: Khalil Shakir has emerged as the top pass-catcher for Josh Allen in Buffalo, catching all 14 of his targets this season for 168 yards and two touchdowns. He's been a fantastic value thus far based on his ADP, and he'll look to keep it going against the Ravens on Sunday Night.
Baltimore's defense has been a solid unit now for years, but they've been leakier than usual this season - allowing big games to Rashee Rice, Davante Adams, and Jake Ferguson.
Khalil Shakir has a favorable slot matchup against Baltimore's defense 👀
Shakir has been one of the most productive slot WRs in the NFL (his 152 yards rank 3rd). The Ravens defense ranks 25th in yards allowed to slot receivers pic.twitter.com/1g8LWu2guX

Shakir operates out of the slot most of the time and does his best work on short and intermediate routes. Look for Allen to find Shakir often in this matchup in order to keep the sticks moving as the Bills will likely have to air it out a bit more than they have had to in some of their blowout wins.
Shakir has a very safe floor for PPR leagues with his volume of targets. He's a little shakier in half-PPR formats but still has enough touchdown equity to justify using as a WR3 or Flex spot. Don't bench him based on this matchup, it's a better spot for him than it might appear at first glance.
