Positive signalRole

Montgomery is a safe round five pick with fringe RB1 potential.

Scott Barrett views David Montgomery as a safe, high-floor pick in round five with fringe RB1 potential. Despite a 40% snap share last year, the team intends for him to be the bell cow in a high-scoring offense with favorable game scripts and red-zone opportunities.
