STACKED’s take
Irving's volume and red-zone opportunity regression set up well with Mayfield's return.
Bucky Irving is averaging 19.5 opportunities per game and is the RB16 in PPR fantasy points per game. He has only two rushing touchdowns on 14 red-zone attempts, suggesting positive regression is likely. Recently playing with a backup quarterback who likes to run may have reduced his higher-value rushing attempts. Against the Panthers, who allow the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs (103.2 rushing yards and 1.2 rushing touchdowns per game on average, plus 33.8 receiving yards per game), Irving could see more value touches with Baker Mayfield expected back under center. With Emeka Egbuka ruled out from a concussion, Irving could see a slight uptick in volume. The source identifies him as a value play with volume and potential regression, an RB2 with upside usable in GPP contests.
