From the episode
Marshawn Lloyd, Jonathan Brooks kind of fall in the same bucket where they were complete write-offs by the organization...And so I think that we've seen now that, you know, I think the trade for Caleb Johnson...there was a lot of excitement about Marshawn Lloyd...I think it probably now two games into it was probably the opposite saying, oh, we are really stuck if Marshawn Lloyd is going to be our top back here.
STACKED’s take

Lloyd overcorrected after return; Packers trade for Johnson signals lack of faith
Lloyd was a complete write-off by the organization and fantasy community, but when he returned healthy, fantasy players overcorrected and pushed him up the board expecting him to be the back he was drafted as two years ago. Behrens notes that the Caleb Johnson trade was initially seen as a sign the Packers believed in Lloyd, but two games in, it looks like the opposite—the team is stuck with Lloyd as their top back and needed to add another option (Johnson). Lloyd is not ranked in Behrens' top 40 this week.
