3 years agoBuffalo Bills rookie wide receiver Khalil Shakir, who the Bills traded up 20 spots to acquire in the fifth round of the draft, is slotted to fill the team's No. 4 receiving role with enough speed and size to help at multiple spots and make plays downfield. Buffalo targeted him partly because of his ability to gain yardage downfield on his own. Shakir can contribute as a punt returner. The Bills see him primarily as a slot receiver, but also someone who can play outside if needed. "I really like that young man. He's tough, he's smart, he's versatile, and I think with the ball in his hands, he's pretty good, too," general manager Brandon Beane said. "He was sticking out. We just felt like let's go get him. This makes sense."--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
