Bears' David Montgomery 'will help immediately'
Chicago Bears third-round running back David Montgomery "will help this team immediately", according to Terez A. Paylor of Yahoo Sports.
The Bears are "in love" with Montgomery, per Paylor, who commented on the rookie's receiving skills and evasiveness, as well as his "professional approach." Tarik Cohen and Mike Davis will be involved, but Montgomery could lead the backfield in touches right out the gates.
numberFire's models project Montgomery for 221.6 carries, 957.7 yards, and 7.12 touchdowns as a rookie, with another 29.9 receptions for 237.1 yards and 1.47 touchdowns. He's the RB23 in our preseason fantasy rankings.
