Who Should I Start? David Montgomery or Kenneth Walker III

Monday, November 10, 8:29 PM

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery recorded 15 carries for 71 yards and punched in a successful two-point conversion try in his team's 44-22 Week 10 win over the Washington Commanders. The 28-year-old has now rushed for 466 yards and five touchdowns on 104 attempts across nine games so far this season. With 14 catches for 106 yards and zero receiving touchdowns, Montgomery has seen minimal usage in the Lions' passing game. He also has a limited ceiling in terms of total touches as long as fellow Detroit running back Jahmyr Gibbs remains healthy. As a result, Montgomery is almost entirely dependent on touchdown scoring for fantasy production, even when he has an efficient rushing day like he did in Week 10. Montgomery may be tough for fantasy managers to trust in a tough Week 11 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III has been a fantasy disappointment this season; however, Walker could deliver flex value in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona has a good-but-not-great defense this season. Walker already carved them up to the tune of 110 total yards in Week 4. Walker has been held in check since then, never topping 9.6 PPR fantasy points. Still, Walker is consistently receiving double-digit opportunities. It is only a matter of time before he breaks off a big run. Seattle's offense is in a serious rhythm at the moment. They are throwing the ball extremely effectively, but they could improve on the ground. Look for Walker to have a bit of a bounce-back game this week to get the Seahawks' running game going again. If you need a flex play with upside, Walker could be your man in Week 10.
