2024 Season Outlooks

Irving enters the NFL after a productive career at Oregon after the Buccaneers used a fourth-round pick to select him in the 2024 NFL Draft. His calling card is his stop-and-start ability -- he can make defenders miss in a phone booth. At 5-foot-9 and 192 pounds, he'll have an opportunity to carve out a change of pace role in Year 1 but does not have much potential to be a lead back and would likely serve in a committee should something happen to Rachaad White. Irving is likely to come off the board in Round 3 of most rookie-only drafts. In redraft, he may be worth a late-round pick just to see how his role shakes out in training camp.

Irving was taken with with the 125th pick in the draft by the Buccaneers and will look to complement Rachaad White in the Tampa backfield. Irving is quick and gets up to speed in a hurry, but doesn't possess breakaway speed. He also doesn't appear to be anything more than a check-down option in the passing game. White is still the starter for the Buccaneers and Irving will simply be hoping to battle with Chase Edmonds in order to become the team's RB2. Irving is no more than a late-round insurance flier.
