From the video
who is this running back though that's going three rounds later that can have similar production? Uh David Montgomery... there is no one pushing David Montgomery for early down work or goal line work on this offense... Monty is in line for just an incredible amount of carries this season. Uh he should get every single touch at the goal line... I have Monty as a running back 21 ECR has him at 24... I don't think you can screw up the Monty pick. He's just going to be a good running back.
STACKED’s take
RB21 vs. RB24 ECR; locked-in touches, strong floor in round 6.
JJ Zachariason identifies David Montgomery as a strong value play going three rounds later than Kyren Williams with similar production potential. Montgomery has no competition for early-down or goal-line work; Woody Marks will only mix in on passing downs and two-minute situations. The Texans' 9.5-win total and strong defense should create positive game scripts in the second half, generating additional touches. Zachariason has Montgomery ranked as RB21 while ECR has him at RB24—a small gap that results in him becoming the top player in rankings at a high rate. Zachariason emphasizes he wants to accumulate Montgomery in round six because he's confident in his touch and touchdown volume. Montgomery is a round 6 value pick with locked-in touches and a strong floor; the Texans' expected offensive bounce-back (due to health returns of Stroud, Nico Collins, and Tank Dell) should create positive game scripts where Montgomery racks up carries and scoring opportunities in the second half. He represents a safe, floor-based RB2 without needing a top-tier ceiling, making him an ideal mid-round anchor when elite RBs are gone. Zachariason states: 'I don't think you can screw up the Monty pick. He's just going to be a good running back.'
