From the episode

Khalil Shakir. Only the Eagles and the Lions have allowed more fantasy points to slot receivers this year than the Raiders have. And what's interesting is that a lot of teams are attacking Vegas deep. They've allowed the second highest average at the target to opposing wide receivers.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

Slot receiver with elite matchup but limited by Raiders' deep-target vulnerability.

Shakir has a strong matchup against the Raiders, who have allowed more fantasy points to slot receivers than all but the Eagles and Lions. However, JJ Zachariason notes the complication: teams are attacking Vegas deep, and the Raiders have allowed the second-highest average depth of target to opposing wide receivers, which is a structural weakness for Shakir's game.
