[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1035607, member: 10086"] It’s been a minute since we selected Marshawn Lloyd. I selected him with our 4th Round pick in the Amish Draft because, after reading up on him, I like he was a 3 Down RB who can be effective in the short passing game. I probably had him in that 6-8th best RB in the 2024 draft class initially or up until around draft day. Many Draft boards had J Brooks, Will Shipley, Trey Benson, Blake Corum, Braelon, Bucky, Jaylon, Estime etc. at least even to way out in front of Lloyd. But there were 12 Senior Bowl invitees. These are typically guys who they suspect will have at least a shot to make that Day1-2 Spotlight. According to Jim Nagy Lloyd was the #1 RB at the Senior Bowl. Many of you know of his ties to the Packers, Redskins, Seattle, Patriots and Chiefs. He is now the Director of Senior Bowl and has extensive experience in player evaluation across 2 decades. He said he “wouldn’t have been shocked to see Marshawn as a later Day1-early Day2 selection” Obviously he recognized the devaluation at the RB position in general, so he understands why he didn’t get selected until Rd3. He had him as the Top RB in this draft. While I still think Marshawn grades better than I initially thought, now 3-5th best among this grouping.. it goes to show you Marshawn is projected by those who intricately watch these guys to be a legit Starting caliber RB1. Imo We got ourselves a RB who possesses a Medium high floor to very high ceiling sitting in the shadows. Be watching him closely because I think The Packers had Lloyd in that later Rd2 realm (call it top 50-60 area overall). Marshawn was a no brainer selection at #88 overall and I think he would’ve been the preferred pick over Blake Corum (#83 overall) Lloyd was likely more in that Jonathon Brooks (#46)-Trey Benson (#66) Top 3 overall RB grouping or squarely at Round 2 grade. He’s a legit, 3-Down RB with the combo of elite Contact balance and semi-elite Breakaway ability that will punish teams both on the ground and through the air.
