 Right, what do we have here? Number 98 on the list of the NFL's top 100 players in 2022. David Montgomery, running back for the Bears. Do I know him? Doesn't ring a bell. I mean, the name, you know, Montgomery Burns, actually, is the really when Montgomery sort of rings a bell for me. But this is not Montgomery Burns. Mr. Burns, this is David Montgomery. And he's running back, which is my favourite position in the entire game of American football. And he plays for the Bears. When I think of the Bears, I think Khalil Mack. When I think of the Bears, I think Justin Fields. When I think of the Bears, I don't think David Montgomery. But that's what this series is about. It's about introducing us all to the top 100 players in the league as voted by their peers. And here we go. Number 98, David Montgomery, boom. Thump, wrap, bring down. That's what I think of David Montgomery. He's a problem. That's a good thing. Okay. Thank God for that. I couldn't remember him whatsoever, and it's most probably because he wasn't on the list last year. But it does look as if he's either got braces or some real nice grills. Not sure if they're at the calibre of old island boys who have literally had their teeth shaved down to get veneers encrusted with diamonds, which I'm assuming they may have to get rid of relatively soon because they are up to their eyeballs and dead. But Dave Montgomery, let's have a look. Bears' workhorse running back David Montgomery is making his debut on the players list. They are absolute workhorses running backs. They are. As each and every year goes by, they get more and more respect from me. Dodging one tackle, still on his feet. Honestly, just the fact you can get through one or two seasons. With the amount of work they get put up, with the amount of hits, amount of work, they must be... Unless the NFL have some sort of hyperbolic time chamber, which I'm sure they do. Combined cryo with hot and heat and ice baths and all that kind of thing, it's probably the closest thing as humans we can get to the hyperbolic time chamber. But they must just be so sore waking up the next day. Let's see if we hear anything about it. Actually, maybe I do recognise him. Caught some people's eyes. You know, I feel like he's a tough runner. He's elusive. He can make you miss and he can run you over. Going against him. So he can make you miss and can run you over. Good luck tackling him then. You know it's going to be a challenge because when he gets the ball in his hands, not only can he go anywhere with it, but wherever you meet him at, you've got to bring the thump, the wrap and the tackle. It's up to that running back to find a lane. And that's David Montgomery's specialty. I said the thump. You ain't just going to wrap and tell him you've got to bring the thump. Lower the show. Oh, shh! That was an angry run by... Oh, I tell you what. You could call that targeting. You could call that using a weapon in plain sight. But what we're going to do actually at the beginning of each of these videos is look up the player. Just get some... some solid stats. Nothing crazy. Prior to starting the video. We're going to start that next video. But for now, David Montgomery, he's a young fella, 25 years of age, June 17... June 7, 1997. 5 foot 11, 224 pounds. Pretty much the perfect height and weight for a running back. Went to Iowa State from 2016-2018. Got picked up in the third round of the 2019 draft, pick number 73. And he's been at the Bears ever since. Has he re-signed? That's what I always think. When they get to like that second or third year, they're always looking for their new deal. Always looking to secure that bag, so to speak. But, doesn't look like he has yet. Although, he's done pretty well. First year in the league as a rookie, 889 rushing yards. Second year, 1070. Third year, last year, 849 rushing yards. He's got a total of 21 rushing touchdowns. He's got almost a thousand total receiving yards. So he is a threat, both on the ground and through the year. And he's played one playoff game thus far. 12 attempts for 31 yards. Got shut down, unfortunately. But, that's playoff football for you. Alright, let's go. Because he has such great core strength that he doesn't get moved very easily. That right, mate. What do we got? A fourth stutter step. Fourth step, stutter step. Nice stiffer, decent dead leg. I mean, being in the league for a short amount of time, that's the only reason why I don't know about him yet. Honestly. He didn't come in as a phenom like Saquon Barkley. Or, you know, D.K. Metcalf. He's just biding his time. Round about that thousand rushing yard per year, Mark. And look, if he stays there, he's only going to get higher on this list. Could be two of y'all, he's breaking that tackle. Let's have a look. Ouch! Montgomery's game goes beyond the ground. His 42 catches made him one of the most versatile backs in the league. Oh, that's pretty much an impossible catch. Bounce off some tackles. You're not going to arm tackle him. Have a look at the pace. Oh, that's one stat we haven't actually looked at for any player just yet. And that's pace. Which is something I... Oh, here we go. Pre-draft measurables. I haven't even considered the term pre-draft measurables in the last six months. But, you know, I don't mind them at all. 46340R dash, 28.5-inch vertical, 10-foot-1 on the broad jump. I'll tell you what, I can actually beat him in all of those categories. So, let's continue. Don't at me, mate. That's the truth. Bang! You call that a head shake. We call that a bang off the left, mate. It's a nice pace to match. And then his team didn't have a good year, but that shows, you know, what he's done. Oh, you can kick, too. Big cap, man. All right, then. All right, well, in this case, we're going to shut it down there. Our next video is number 97 for the Giants, Leonard Williams, who... For whatever reason, I thought he played for the Colts. Maybe he did, maybe he didn't. We're going to find all of that out plus more in the next video. Maybe there's another Williams, or maybe there's another Leonard. Not quite sure. It's been six months. Anyways, guys, as always, thank you so much for watching. Like the video if you've enjoyed it. Head down into the description box below where you can find out how to support this channel and future videos. And, hey, we're three videos in, and we've got 97 to go, so let's fucking do this shit.
