Montgomery's raw speed is adequate and more of the build-up variety. He does have enough speed to stack defenders when running the vertical route tree, but the jump in competition is a concern in that area. He could find himself having to win at the catch point more in the NFL. Montgomery displays late hands and can operate above the rim in jump ball situations. He could be a red zone threat for an NFL offense from Day 1. Montgomery is a catch point winner. He had only 13 contested targets last year, but he secured 61.5% of them. Montgomery has solid fluidity in his routes. His hip stiffness does show up when he's asked to sink and decelerate on comebacks and curls. Montgomery is much better on ins and outs when he can put his foot in the ground and uncover quickly. He does a decent job of adding some nuance to his routes with some salesmanship. His in-route footwork does need to be cleaned up as his feet can get away from him at times, getting in and out of his breaks, where he'll lose his footing. Despite his 27 missed tackles forced last year, I don't consider him to be a behemoth after the catch. Much of that I attribute to the lower level of competition and poor tackling. He profiles more as a possession receiver in the NFL. Dynasty Outlook: Tyren Montgomery went undrafted, but he has signed a UDFA deal with the Titans. He's worth picking up off the dynasty waiver wire after the rookie draft and stashing on a taxi squad (if you have room), but he'll have quite the uphill climb to make the Week 1 roster with the litany of veterans on the roster already.
