From the episode

My bold fade prediction is that David Montgomery is a mid tier RB3... you also can't apply Monty's efficiency in Detroit to Houston.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Montgomery is a fade who may struggle to reach RB2 status in the Texans' offense.

Derek Brown predicts David Montgomery will finish as a mid-tier RB3, arguing that his efficiency in Detroit cannot be applied to the Texans' offense. Concerns include a revamped, unproven offensive line, a potential 50-50 carry split with Woody Marks, and a lower-scoring offensive environment compared to Detroit.
