Blake Corum or MarShawn Lloyd: Who Should You Start?

The call

• Role is the killer: 29% snap share and a 2% target share means he's the clear complement, not the workhorse, and PPR leagues punish backs with no receiving floor.
• Consensus has him RB38 at 9.4 points — that's below the typical replacement-level flex in a 12-team league, and his week hinges on touchdown luck rather than volume.
• Game script is the one thing working for him: a 25.8 implied total and a 3-point favorite role means late-game clock-killing carries, which is why he's not a zero.
• Matchup offers no edge — SF grades 18 of 32 vs the position on a 0-game sample with 0.00 confidence, so there's nothing there to tip the call to start.

The call

• The sourced report has Lloyd in line for 15-to-20 touches as the lead back rather than a change-of-pace role, and touch volume is what carries a 12.6-point RB24 projection in PPR.
• Game script cooperates: a 1.5-point spread with a 23.0 implied team total means Green Bay stays balanced and Lloyd should see work in both the run game and on passing downs.
• The DvP composite ranks Minnesota 13 of 32 against the position, but it's a 0-game sample with 0.00 confidence — it's not a reason to fade a back with this workload.
• Risk is the unproven profile: if Green Bay splits the backfield more than reported, Lloyd's floor drops fast. He's a volume bet, not a talent-proven one.
