Outlook Woody Marks
Valuable Complementary Role Offers Safe PPR Bench Depth
Woody Marks enters his second NFL season as a key backup in the Houston backfield, operating directly behind primary starter David Montgomery. After handling 212 carries as a rookie in 2025, Marks is projected for a more complementary role this year. Our models project him for 120 rushing attempts, 490 yards, and three touchdowns on the ground.
Despite the lighter projected rushing workload, Marks maintains a solid receiving profile. He is projected to catch 23 passes on 23 targets for 180 yards and another score. This pass-catching efficiency keeps him relevant in PPR leagues, where his roster ownership remains high at 82% despite a starting rate of just 33%.
Draft market trends show Marks' ADP holding steady around pick 130 over the past month. This makes him a highly stable late-round target. Our projection of 113.7 fantasy points suggests he represents a safe bench value with immediate, high-end insurance upside if Montgomery misses time.

Outlook Kareem Hunt
Declining Efficiency and Unsigned Status Leave Veteran Back as a Risky Bench Stash
At nearly 31 years old, Kareem Hunt remains on the fantasy radar but faces a highly uncertain future. After handling 193 carries for 3.7 yards per carry last season, the veteran remains unsigned in the NFL, which is reflected in his moderate 57% fantasy rostership.
Hunt's efficiency has noticeably waned over the last few seasons, failing to exceed 3.7 yards per carry in either of his last two campaigns. While he proved he can still handle a heavy workload when called upon, his ceiling is severely capped by his declining explosiveness and minimal passing-game involvement.
Fantasy managers should view Hunt strictly as a late-round insurance policy or a waiver-wire watch-list candidate. Unless he lands in a favorable committee backfield with clear goal-line opportunities, we recommend letting other managers take the risk on draft day.
