Waldman doubts Irving finishes season; weight concerns and 10-game projection limit upside.
Bucky IrvingRBTB
Matt Waldman has durability concerns about Bucky Irving despite his strong second-half finish (13.3 touches, 85 yards, 17.8 fantasy points per game from week 11 onward). Irving played only 10 games last year and is projected for just 10 games in 2025. Waldman worries Irving cannot maintain his listed weight of 205 lbs and historically plays at 178-185 lbs, making him vulnerable to injury and recovery issues. Irving's ADP in round 8 (RB34) reflects last year's points-per-game finish (RB18) and does not account for durability risk.

Bucky Irving's 1A. And that's based on the fact that Bucky Irving's going to be healthy and going to be able to finish the the season from wire to wire. And I just have doubts about that... he played most of his career, probably in that 178 to 185 range. Bulked up when he got to the league... I only have him projected for 10 games this year.
