2020 Outlook

Depth Chart

I was leery about Montgomery last summer when he was the top rookie runner being selected, sometimes in the top-three rounds and those fears came to fruition as Chicago seemed unwilling and unable to give Montgomery the workhorse role he needed to be a fantasy difference maker. Tarik Cohen siphoned nearly all of the backfield receptions away and despite finishing 14th in rushing attempts; Montgomery's efficiency with those touches (3.7 yards-per-carry) was dreadful. The wiggle and power he displayed in the pre-season (where he and the entire Chicago offense were mothballed for a month) was nowhere to be found in the regular season as he failed to generate yardage on his own. When you have a bad offensive line and only get what's blocked, bad things happen.

I really can't say I'm overly bullish on Montgomery's fantasy prospects in Year 2. Cohen is still there to own the majority of the 3rd down and hurry up receptions, and while Montgomery's rushing volume is sure to hover around the top-10 at the position, the offensive line hasn't made enough meaningful additions to move the needle from their low-tier 2019 rating. Chicago just can't seem to figure out any type of identity or consistency on offense, and maybe Foles helps here, but short of a major shift on offense, or an injury to Cohen, Montgomery feels like an upside RB3 at best in 2020.
