Week 7 matchup analysis
Fantasy verdict
David Montgomery is a FLEX option asset for rest-of-season trades. He is No. 119 overall in Half PPR. Through Week 6, his 5-game sample includes 52 carries for 138 yards and 2 rushing touchdowns, plus 7 catches for 67 yards. That is 9.1 PPR points per game.
Role and efficiency
His latest 2 appearances produced 7.5 carries per game, versus 8.5 in the preceding 2. The workload is holding near its recent baseline. His 1.4 catches per game add reception-based scoring alongside the rushing workload. Across 3 recent snap records, he averaged 44.3% of offensive snaps. Catches and receiving yards alone contributed 2.7 PPR points per game before receiving touchdowns. His 2.7 yards per carry rank 47 of 48 qualifying RBs in our pool (three games and 30 carries). Low efficiency leaves him more dependent on volume and touchdowns. The availability snapshot lists week 7: out (groin); check the documented return status before using him.
Weekly lineup call
Keep him out of Week 7 lineups. The verified override in this run lists confirmed Week 7 Out/inactive; October 25 availability check. His rest-of-season trade tier remains FLEX option; the weekly absence does not erase that longer-term ranking.
Trade stance
Half-PPR trade value: 49.1. Same-position model prices: Ollie Gordon II (RB47, value 48.9) and Keaton Mitchell (RB45, value 49.3). Price him as a secondary asset in rest-of-season deals; do not upgrade his trade tier on a single weekly forecast. PPR value is 48.8; Standard is 49.6. His overall rank held at 119.

Sources and calculation notes
Automatically generated by The Roster Report from source-linked statistics and published calculations. Fantasy tiers use a 12-team, one-QB baseline; lineup calls use the player’s rank within the published PPR forecast. Trade stances are editorial interpretations of model tiers, not market-price claims. Efficiency comparisons require three recorded games and at least 50 pass attempts for QBs, 30 carries for RBs, or 20 targets for WRs/TEs within the analyzer’s player pool. These editorial rules do not change model scores or rankings. No manual player writeups. Model neutral defaults are excluded from observed-stat claims. Recorded games can include injury-shortened appearances. Recent comparisons use appearances, not missed-game zeros.

Default-league values include the analyzer’s existing availability and RB adjustments. Custom scoring, Superflex and package premiums are evaluated inside the analyzer. No market discount or buy/sell recommendation is inferred without supporting market data.
Projection run assumptions: October 25 pregame injury refresh: confirmed inactives excluded; Mayfield and Huntley confirmed starters; Mason and Coleman restored using recorded 2026 roles. Jacobs full-workload and Barkley conditional healthy-role assumptions retained. Puka remains conditional. Kirk, Dell and Sampson are activated but have no usable 2026 offensive sample, so no numeric forecast is invented. Thursday and Paris-game forecasts preserved for audit.
