Wolf of Roto Street Roto Street Journal | 6/22: 100% healthy, running 22 MPH, RB6 on torn PCL all year.. a 4th round STEAL! | |
Brandon Funston The Athletic | Volume is a big driver of his value, but with new coaching regime and expected run scheme changes, don't be surprised if backup Khalil Herbert is more involved | Deserves credit for toughing out nagging injuries for RB7 finish in 2021, but hard to be overly bullish with all that mileage and an emerging Tony Pollard behind him |
Derek Brown FantasyPros | David Montgomery finished as the RB12 and RB6 in fantasy points per game in each of the last two seasons, surpassing expectations. The Bears' receiving weapons are depleted outside of Darnell Mooney and Cole Kmet, so there's an easy pathway for plenty of check downs weekly. With Fields under center, he saw 4.75 targets per game, which would be a new career-high if that repeats this upcoming season. Montgomery needs the added fantasy points through the air because outside of raw volume on the ground, the big plays likely won't be there to lead to ceiling weeks. Montgomery is a volume RB2 with an upside for more. | Ezekiel Elliott is coming off a down season where some of this could be related to the fact he dealt with a partially torn PCL for much of the season (since Week 4). The spliced-up workload and his declining effectiveness could result from the injury or his advancing age and the toll that the NFL has taken on him. Elliott has amassed 1,938 touches (22 per game) over his six-year career, never handling less than 268 touches in any season. Elliott should be viewed as an RB2 in many formats that could slowly dissolve into a high-end RB3 if Tony Pollard gets more run in 2022. |
Derek Lofland FantasyPros | Considering that Montgomery missed four games with injury and played on one of the worst offenses in the league, it was amazing that he finished the year with 1,071 yards from scrimmage and 7 TDs. He should be a great fantasy player in 2022, if Justin Fields progresses and gives the offense some balance. | Elliott is not as efficient as he used to be, for the second straight year he was under 5.0 yards per touch at 4.5. However, he did have 1,199 yards from scrimmage and 12 touchdowns in the fantasy season. He feels like more of a RB2 than RB1, but at 27 years old, he should have another solid year in him. |
