Early-down only with no goal-line role; totally out at cost
Bucky IrvingRBTB
Drafted around RB24–RB25 (low-end RB2), but the source is totally out on him at cost and would be out even at a lower price. Irving has an early-down-only role without goal line, two-minute, or long down-and-distance work—described as empty calories. He was injured last year, causing efficiency dips, and faces competition from Kenneth Gainwell and Shawn Tucker at goal line. While he could return on ADP as a back 21-24, he lacks the upside ceiling of a back 10 and is not a preferred target in the dead zone given year-two running back alternatives like David Montgomery at similar price.
