phillyfan461 133 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I think Monty is what he is, a low-end RB2/flex. Hard to envision alot of upside but you could certainly do worse if you address others positions with your first couple of picks. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
SnickSnack 36 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Love the talent but like others have said I'm worried about play calling and coaching. I think the lack of preseason is really going to hurt this team more than others. They have a lot to work out on offense that you need live reps to work out. They started out slow last year because none of the starters played in the preseason and never were able to get up to speed and I see it being similar this year, especially with the lack of clarity at QB.

Like the player and his work ethic, but it seems like he's only going to be as good as his surrounding situation. He didn't have great vision last year and really lacked burst. He's got great passing game chops but they didn't use him enough there. I still think there's some upside, but his lack of speed and ability to break big runs bums me out.

Gmen07 170 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I drafted last weekend and was kicking myself for not taking him. He seemed poised for an improved season. Hopefully it’s not season ending but it doesn’t sound good right now. Link to post Share on other sites

Savatage79 2,427 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Groins are never fun to deal with tho, it sounds like they're downplaying it a bit. Never heard of needing carted for a groin pull. Edited August 26, 2020 by Savatage79 Link to post Share on other sites

JDE 330 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Apparently he wasn’t carted out. still probably wouldn’t be the worst move to scoop up Freeman if you’re in a deep league. Link to post Share on other sites

JDE 330 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 video of the injury.. looks like he’s walking alright but seems to be in pretty bad pain/discomfort Link to post Share on other sites
AlexxelA 146 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Anyone have any idea on a timeline? A quick search showed recovery time from a grain strain can be anywhere from a couple week to 6 or maybe more if it's more severe. 6 weeks would have him missing weeks 1-4 probably. Week 1 is 2.5 weeks away so I would guess he is limited or misses at least 1 game... Link to post Share on other sites
kdpat15 258 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 regardless of the severity of the injury, I assume the bears have to sign someone now as their depth is slim at the position. I expect a signing in the next week or so but who knows what player they will target. Link to post Share on other sites

bangarrang 184 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 That vid looks pretty bad, just the clear pain and inability to put much weight on it. I drafted a couple days ago and took Montgomery and I just picked up Freeman. I'm not sure if Freeman will be added but like others are saying I think that they will need to add someone.

It won't necessarily be Freeman though that's who I think is the best available rb who could fill in, in a pinch. I read they worked out ex-Seahawk C.J. Prosise and a few other rb's recently.

It’s probably still more serious than the Bears are letting on. He hasn’t even been tested yet. However, if Montgomery did miss time and the Bears sign Freeman then I want no part of that backfield whatsoever. Forget rankings. Unless you’re getting Freeman in the 9th round or later it’s a wasted pick IMO. I’d rather take my shot with Damien Harris in what I believe is a better offense. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MrCantaloupe 569 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Full off the bone tear would cost him the year. A medium tear probably lands him on the PUP list. Groin injuries heal slowly and have a high potential for reinjury. Such a bummer. I believe the Bears believe they are contenders. A trade for Fournette or Hunt would be spicy to say the least. Would the Football Team move a back? Link to post Share on other sites

Freeman had a combined 1000 yards, 6 tds and caught 60 balls last year on a fairly off year..why would you avoid that situation especially with Foles slinging it ?
