Before being selected by the Green Bay Packers in the third round of the 2024 NFL draft, rookie running back MarShawn Lloyd reportedly was coveted by a pair of NFC East teams.
Per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, the Dallas Cowboys "had shown enough pre-draft love" to Lloyd that the former USC speedster "thought the Cowboys would be one of the possible teams to draft him." Also, the New York Giants "had [their] sights on" Lloyd "as a future lead back but didn't have a pick between Nos. 71 and 107." The Packers ended up selecting him at No.
