Yahoo Fantasy Football on MarShawn Lloyd
From the article
In Green Bay's preseason, Lloyd was getting 100% of the snaps with the starters. They included him in the passing game, and with only Kaleb Johnson as true competition for early down work, I'd expect Lloyd to have that important role.
STACKED’s take
Lloyd's preseason snap share and role suggest starting value despite limited career carries.
Lloyd presents two sides: one tells you he's the RB1 on a good offense with very little competition for carries; the other brings up that he has only six carries in two career years. The combination of limited experience with the Minnesota defense makes him more of an average flex play for Week 1 as his long-term role is figured out. However, Smyth still thinks if you drafted him before filling out your bench, he's a worthy start. In Green Bay's preseason, Lloyd was getting 100% of the snaps with the starters, was included in the passing game, and with only Kaleb Johnson as true competition for early down work, Smyth expects Lloyd to have that important role.
