David Montgomery (RB – HOU) | MFL ADP: 87.92 (RB26)... The Texans traded an offensive lineman and two Day 3 picks for David Montgomery, which leads me to think he'll be used quite a bit in this rushing attack... Montgomery may not be used much in the receiving game (just a 5.3% target share with the Lions last season), but he should receive enough rushing volume to outpace this RB26 ADP.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Montgomery is RB26 at MFL ADP 87.92 but represents strong value. The Texans traded an offensive lineman and two Day 3 picks for him, signaling heavy usage. Last season's Texans RB carries were split among Woody Marks (49.1%, averaging 3.6 yards per carry with 23% of carries going for zero or negative yards), Nick Chubb (30.6%, now gone), and Jawhar Jordan (10.8%). Montgomery had 38.8% of the Lions' carries last season, averaging 4.5 yards per carry with 30.4% of runs going for 5+ yards. While he may not be used much in the receiving game (5.3% target share with Lions), he should receive enough rushing volume to outpace this RB26 ADP.
