1. Interesting

2. Also had terrion Arnold yesterday!

3. sounds close enough to Marshawn lynch, draft him.

4. fun player

5. Have no opinion on the player, but for whatever it’s worth Dane Brugler has him going in the late 3rd round in his massive mock for [The Athletic](https://theathletic.com/5418352/2024/04/17/nfl-mock-draft-2024-full-seven-rounds-dane-brugler/).

   The Draft Consensus Big Board (which averages a player’s expected draft range) has him at [108th overall](https://www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com/players/2024/marshawn-lloyd) currently, but with some expecting he may go early round 3.

6. I’d take him in the 3rd or 4th round if he’s the highest player on their board

7. From Wilmington, DE. Let’s bring him home!

8. Draft a rb, bring bosco back and cut gainwell

9. PPF elusiveness grade has a really good correlation to RB prospects panning out, and he kills it there. I’m interested

10. Good athlete, good pedigree, low college usage. Sounds like a Howie RB

11. We honestly need a 2nd RB.

    Barkley is going to be a bellcow, but even bellcow RBs need 20-30% of snaps off.

    I was a big Gainwell guy 2 years ago, but all he really brings to the table is his pass protection, which Saquon will now do while also being a threat in other ways.

    Getting a bruising back that can take some snaps off Saquon’s back is a small, but necessary need. Gainwell is just okay.

12. His profile on NFL.com notes:

    >Lacks sand in his pants to protect his quarterback in blitz pickup.

    🙂

13. Didnt have a lot of talent around him, but I wasn’t impressed as a South Carolina fan.

14. We need Saquon Insurance

15. I’m a USC fan so I saw a ton of him. He’s a legit power back. Can fight through contact for yards and get you those 2-3 yards when needed. Would love for us to draft him.

16. There are a couple nice RBs in the class that could be fun to grab in the fourth or fifth. Really like Lloyd he could be the thunder to Barkley’s lighting.
