Montgomery's superior skill set and minimal competition position him for top-15 RB upside.
David MontgomeryRB
Montgomery joined the Texans for significant draft capital with very little competition; Woody Marks, a fourth-rounder, ranked 48th among 49 backs with 100+ attempts in yards per carry (3.59), 48th in missed tackles forced per attempt, and 37th in yards after contact per attempt, proving better suited to a change-of-pace role. Montgomery is a superior pass-catcher and goal-line back, with youth being Marks' only advantage. If the Texans improve offensive line play and C.J. Stroud's performance, Montgomery can easily reach top-18 running back status; he was RB32 in fantasy points per game last season but has potential to be a top-15 back in 2026.
