Not necessarily the most consequential signing we’re going to see this offseason given that Shakir has yet to establish himself as an every-week fantasy starter, but a notable one in a Bills WR room that’s lacking a true No. 1 wideout. Shakir has functioned in that role as the de facto top receiver in the room and has been moderately productive through his first three years in the league, netting him what is by and large a very affordable long-term deal. With the move, Josh Allen retains his top target earner in the Bills’ passing game from last season – and more importantly, Shakir is now officially tied to Josh Allen as his quarterback for the foreseeable future. Given the relative lack of competition in Buffalo and the fact that he plays out of the slot, Shakir’s role in the Bills’ offense is tightly secured and affords him room to grow even more into an even more reliable, higher-upside fantasy WR on a high-quality offense. It’s likely the best outcome for Shakir, who was an every week start at the FLEX in 2024 and will continue to be barring unforeseen drastic changes in the Bills’ offense. He’ll continue to do battle with the likes of Keon Coleman and Dalton Kincaid at the top of the pecking order in terms of target distribution in 2025.
