Ty Montgomery, RB, Green Bay Packers

In 2016, Ty Montgomery saw at least 40% of Green Bay's snaps in 9 of his 15 games played. In those games, he averaged 7.89 carries, 49.56 rushing yards, 0.33 rushing touchdowns, 5.78 targets, 4.44 receptions, and 36.11 receiving yards per contest.

In PPR formats, that's roughly 15 fantasy points per outing. That would've made him a top-10 running back last year.

That's the easiest way to explain why Ty Montgomery is on this underrated list. He's currently being drafted as the 17th running back off the board in PPR leagues on FantasyFootballCalculator.com, but in limited time, he's already shown to have RB1 upside.

And he's in one of the best offenses in the league with arguably the most talented quarterback in the league.

And he's competing with later-round rookies for playing time.

And he's actually a pretty damn good running back.

Last year, per our metrics, Montgomery had a 45.45% Success Rate (percentage of positive expected point runs). Among the 69 (nice) running backs with 50 or more carries last year, that rate ranked 16th-best. What's more impressive, though, is that TyMont's efficiency compared to his teammates was second-best in football, behind only Kenneth Dixon. In other words, in a similar circumstance behind the same offensive line, Montgomery was outperforming his teammates by a lot.
