At first, David Montgomery just wasn't getting the work. The Bears opened the season with Mike Davis of all people as their No. 1 back, with Montgomery fighting for scraps. It was ... disheartening for Fantasy players to watch, to say the least.
That arrangement didn't last long, however, and Montgomery has been the team's obvious top option for three weeks running. But the Fantasy production hasn't been there. There have been flashes, for sure, but Montgomery just hasn't put it all together.
That changes in Week 5. He's got a great matchup, and Montgomery is going to shine on the international stage. That's why he's Jamey Eisenberg's pick for Start o the Week for this Sunday's matchup against the Raiders. It's all going to happen for him.
Check out the rest of Jamey's Start and Sit calls for Week 5, plus Dave Richard's picks for each game, and Heath Cummings' previews for each position. Don't lock your lineup in until you read what they've got to say.
