There were legitimate concerns about how the Green Bay Packers were going to use Ty Montgomery this season, and those concerns were likely a driving factor in capping his standard-league average draft position (ADP) late in the third round, perFantasyFootballCalculator.com.

Montgomery had a very efficient 2016 season. As our Brandon Gdula pointed out back in July, Montgomery significantly outplayed his fellow running backs on the Packers last year, posting a higher Rushing Net Expected Points (NEP) per play and Rushing Success Rate -- the percentage of his carries that led to an NEP gain -- than either Eddie Lacy or James Starks. Montgomery was good, especially for a converted former wide receiver.

His background as a wide receiver and his 2016 efficiency had us hopeful that we could have the next great all-around back on our hands, but the Packers gave us three reasons to worry about his potential 2017 volume when they drafted three rookie running backs in this year's NFL draft.

Last night, the Packers did just about all they could to dispel those worries. Green Bay fed Montgomery, giving him a combined 23 touches. His nearest competition? Jamaal Williams with two carries. Furthermore, Williams' first carry of the game came only after Green Bay ran Montgomery on five consecutive plays.

It was a convincing display of how the Packers intend to use Montgomery, so have confidence firing him up in your lineups going forward.
