Is Investing Big in Running Backs the Secret to Unlocking NFL Championship Glory?
The funny thing is, there are two Montgomery-esque running backs in this group: Harris and Williams. If you look at the first four years of each player’s career, their numbers are eerily similar.
Another element to consider here is pass protection. Montgomery was a well-known pass-blocking running back who finished 11th in pass-blocking ELO this season. And, oddly enough, two of the aforementioned free agent running backs finished ahead of him among qualified players (minimum 100 snaps): Williams (who ranked first) and Hunt (who ranked seventh). The other running backs rank anywhere from 17th (Mattison) to 46th (Harris).
