MarShawn Lloyd is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 11 of the 2024 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: One of fantasy football's golden rules is to roster players on good offenses. As a fantasy manager, you should follow that rule. The Green Bay Packers have had one of the league's most explosive offenses each year that Matt LaFleur has been the head coach, and this year is no different.
Whew Sean Rhyan getting some MOVEMENT at the POA.... And awesome double teams with Zach Tom!
Love this run-to-finish ability, we can slug it out and play 'smash mouth' too with Packers offense. This will be needed in January! pic.twitter.com/nYGMC4Kece

Another golden rule is to try to pick up running backs on teams with good run blocking. Think of Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams. He feasts off head coach Sean McVay's run blocking schemes and has elite production because of it. Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) has had a season marred by injuries.
He's close to returning, though, and the team expects him to be back soon. When he starts playing, it's only a matter of time before he rips off big plays.
Josh Jacobs said he makes MarShawn Lloyd ride with him to practice each day. Makes sure the rookie keeps his head in it despite being out for so long.
Jacobs: “I’m excited to see him go this week.”
Lloyd returning to practice this week and will be designated to return off IR.

He was one of the most explosive RBs of this year's draft class, and he'll thrive off the team's elite run blocking if given the opportunities.

He is a pickup of the highest urgency this week. He should not be on waivers, but you may not even have to use a claim on him. He has massive upside, and if he has any games with a decent number of touches, he could be massive for fantasy managers.

Every fantasy manager on the planet absolutely loves the tight end position. Well, not really. It would be nice if teams would throw to their tight ends more, but that might not happen any time soon. It's rare to find an elite TE. There are far more elite fantasy options at running back and wide […]

Still, having one of the better […]
