Outlook Woody Marks
Expanded Receiving Role and Contingency Value Make Him an Intriguing Late-Round Target
Entering his second NFL campaign, Woody Marks is positioned as the primary change-of-pace option behind David Montgomery in Houston's backfield. After showcasing physical running in the preseason and working extensively on his route tree, Marks offers standalone utility as a versatile pass catcher.
Our season projections expect Marks to share the workload effectively, forecasting 140 carries for 585 yards and 25 catches for 190 yards, totaling 126.0 fantasy points. While he handled 212 carries as a rookie, his dialed-back volume should improve his per-touch efficiency.
Market sentiment has cooled considerably, with his ADP sliding from around 130 in mid-August to 178 heading into September. With fantasy managers hesitating, our projections view his plummeting draft price as a prime value steal in 1.0 PPR formats for a high-end handcuff with pass-down upside.

Outlook Kyle Monangai
Preseason Knee Injury Sparks Draft-Day Buying Opportunity
Kyle Monangai enters his second NFL season looking to build upon a solid 2025 campaign where he handled 189 carries. Operating as the primary change-of-pace option behind D'Andre Swift in Chicago's offense, he offers reliable weekly touch potential once fully healthy.
A mid-August hyperextended knee caused his draft cost to plummet from the late seventh round (ADP ~90) down to the 12th round (ADP ~145). Fantasy drafters fled due to his week-to-week designation, creating an overcorrection for an injury that avoided major structural damage.
Our projections anticipate 720 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 170 carries, plus 20 receptions (159.0 PPR points). His sliding ADP turns him into an exceptional late-round value who can deliver flex utility and standalone contingent upside if Swift misses time.
