Whkfc Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Another strong game for Shakir and another no-show game from Gabe Davis. Have we seen a change at the #2 receiver for the Bills? 11 9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoonerBillsFan Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 (edited) He should. Davis was MIA all night Edited November 20, 2023 by SoonerBillsFan 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Production wise, absolutely. However Gabe will likely still see his starting job safe.  Shakir was fantastic, but so was Davis in that #3WR role. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMM Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Yes, BUT he is not an outside wr, he thrives in the slot. Leave him there, stuck with Davis rest of year 4 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whkfc Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 We HAVE draft receiver early this year I think. Davis is good as gone and I think has done himself no favors in a huge contract year for him. 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistofFate Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Shakir should have been utilized more dating back to last year. He's speed and agility makes him very dangerous.  Glad to see Brady using Cook, Shakir, Morris, and many others. Mismatches are what keep defenses off balance. Different players, packages, etc. No where to key in on. 7 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Been banging the drum all season for Shakir and he has shined once he gets the chance. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceVilanch Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Keep Shakir in the slot and go after a legit #2 in the draft, we need to think about another #1 too, I have to imagine we'll have another diggs off season saga. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Receiver and safety need to be high priority this offseason imo.  Draft or free agency we’re gonna need an influx of young talent.  3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPappaPump Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 I think so. Gabe just hasn’t made the progress that we’ve needed him to make. Opportunities are being given to Kincaid & Shakir that use to go to Davis, & they’re making the most of them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorin' Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Kincaid has passed Davis as the #2. And Shakir is making a case for himself to be given #3 level targets. Â Â 5 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 The offense should run through Diggs, Kincaid, Cook, and Shakir going forward.  I still marvel at the amount of people on this board who were banging the table for his release because he had a quiet Pre-Season. Goes to show how much Pre-Season does not matter. 1 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, first off anyone with the user name Roscoe Parrish should probably refrain from weighing in on anything WR related. Â Second, I'm not referring to tonight.

Airseven Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Shakir is a bright spot, no doubt. Hopefully he finds more success and consistency than McKenzie as his role elevates.  His catch/run/TD tonight was a strike of confidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes WR is our top priority in this draft. Our defense will survive not getting a DT round 1 but this draft is special at WR. We’ll miss out on Harrison but Odunze is the guy I want. He’s a physical freak who has natural hands and man just look at the trust Penix has with this kid. Watch the last play of the Washington vs Oregon state game yesterday on 4th down to seal the win. He’s just clutch and would slide into the #1 job sooner rather than later…BUT even if we aren’t fortunate enough to nab him, this is a ridiculously loaded class. Beane better have some good scouts in the building finally to talk some sense in him not waiting until round 5 for guys who won’t ever produce in the NFL cough cough shorter. Hit on a sure thing early, which this class has a lot of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 For this year probably  Next year, I would really like to see the bills go wide receiver in round one, keeping a Shakir as the number three receiver  Let’s build a team with guys that can get separation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
