Fantasy Football Player Notes

DJ Moore crushed all expectations in Week 1 as the Bills' new alpha wide receiver. He was the WR9 in weekly scoring, leading the team with a 24.1% target share and 33.3% first-read share while posting 100 receiving yards and three deep targets (zero red zone/end zone targets). I expect Moore to eat again in Week 2 against a Detroit secondary that allowed the 11th-most fantasy points per target and the seventh-most yards per target to perimeter wide receivers in Week 1.

Khalil Shakir is a deep league flex only for Week 2. He returned to his usual role in Week 1 that we have seen him garner throughout his career, running 57.1% of his routes from the slot. Shakir had a 65.6% route share, a 20.7% target share, 50 receiving yards (2.38 YPRR), and a 20% first-read share (tied for second on the team with Dalton Kincaid). Shakir didn't get a red zone, end zone, or deep target in Week 1, which isn't surprising. He's an empty-calorie PPR flex that you hope falls into the end zone, but in this high-scoring environment, that could happen in Week 2. In Week 1, Detroit allowed the seventh-most yards per target to slot receivers and ranked 15th in fantasy points per target.
