Fantasy Tiers

That ranking gap means Devin Singletary carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Devin Singletary vs MarShawn Lloyd: The Full Breakdown

The gap between Devin Singletary and MarShawn Lloyd is smaller than most fantasy managers think. Separated by just 0.9 PPG in 2025, this is one of those running back decisions that comes down to context, not name recognition. Devin Singletary averaged 5.9 PPG with the New York Giants across 17 games, and MarShawn Lloyd posted 6.8 with the Green Bay Packers in 12.

When two running backs are separated by less than two points per game, the decision shifts to weekly context. Who has the softer defense? Who is trending up over the last month? Which team is projected for more total points? Those are the tiebreakers that actually matter.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Devin Singletary ran for 437 yards and 5 touchdowns; MarShawn Lloyd posted 325 and 3. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

Devin Singletary has his bye in Week 8, and MarShawn Lloyd rests in Week 10. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at running back for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Devin Singletary (age 28, 6 years) is past the typical RB peak. Redraft value exceeds dynasty value. MarShawn Lloyd (age 27) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open.
