Outlook MarShawn Lloyd
Expanded Backfield Opportunity and Surging Draft Stock Signal High-Upside Value
With Josh Jacobs currently sidelined on the commissioner exempt list, MarShawn Lloyd has stepped directly into first-team work for Green Bay. Listed ahead of Chris Brooks in practice rotations, Lloyd is finally healthy after appearing in just one regular-season contest over his first two NFL campaigns. Green Bay's coaching staff confirmed he faces no physical restrictions, setting him up to lead an explosive backfield.
Market sentiment has responded aggressively to Lloyd's newfound opportunity. His ADP climbed from obscure territory around 440 in early August all the way to 164 in recent 1.0 PPR drafts, while his roster rate surged to 94%. Even with this dramatic rise, our projections view his price as an outstanding draft-day value rather than an overhyped reach.
Our models project Lloyd for 165 carries, 715 rushing yards, and five touchdowns, complemented by 20 catches for 150 yards and another score. While his injury history demands caution, his path to immediate volume makes him an enticing breakout target with strong flex-to-RB2 potential.

Outlook Travis Kelce
Fading Draft Cost Creates Value Opportunity for Kansas City's Anchor Tight End
Kelce enters his 14th NFL campaign firmly entrenched atop Kansas City's tight end depth chart ahead of Noah Gray. While the Chiefs' passing attack features younger perimeter playmakers like Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy, Kelce remains an essential short-to-intermediate target.
Our projections expect Kelce to haul in 72 receptions for 750 yards and five touchdowns on 107 targets, totaling 184.0 fantasy points. While his yardage efficiency has dipped over the past two seasons, consistent double-digit weekly target potential provides a bankable fantasy floor.
Draft market sentiment has cooled significantly, with Kelce's ADP sliding from around 108 in late July down to 146 by early September. That plunging cost represents a clear market overreaction in 1.0 PPR formats, transforming the veteran into an appealing draft-day value steal.
