RotoWire NFL Articles on David Montgomery
From the article
David Montgomery has scored 13, 12 and eight touchdowns in his last three seasons, a legitimate touchdown machine, and he's missed just six games in that span, durable enough to handle a true lead role.
STACKED’s take
Montgomery's 13-12-8 TD streak and elite goal-line profile offer value in Houston's improved line.
David Montgomery has scored 13, 12, and eight touchdowns in his last three seasons, a legitimate touchdown machine, and missed just six games in that span, durable enough for a true lead role. He ranks in the top 8 percent in evasiveness and top 11 percent in power success rate, a short-yardage and goal-line specialist profile. He's leaving a crowded Detroit backfield for a potential workhorse role in Houston, where the offensive line has been overhauled at three spots to fix a bottom-5 run-blocking unit, and an elite Houston defense (fewer than 300 points allowed) should produce positive game scripts and clock-killing carries. Woody Marks remains on the roster but was well below average in efficiency and isn't a real threat to touches. Jim Coventry says Montgomery is being discounted for a decline that hasn't actually happened and sees him as one of the better values at running back.
