MarShawn Lloyd Should Be Involved Early On
Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich basically has already said that rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd won't ride the bench like AJ Dillon did as a rookie.

Fantasy Football Players to Target and Avoid in 2024 - NFC South
Mediocrity defined the NFC South in 2023. The division winner Tampa Bay Buccaneers recorded a 9-8 record, narrowly edging out 9-8 New Orleans and 7-10 Atlanta. But who cares about records?

Fantasy football is all about value. Taking a player three rounds earlier than where he is going in drafts likely won't work out in the long run.
