From the video

I don't have trust that, uh, that, um, what's his name? Bucky Irving coming off the shoulder. Coming off the shoulder surgery. Yeah, Shribby Irving. Yeah, he's a 195 pounder, right? Uh, so so yeah, and he's coming off the injury, not working out at OTAs.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Irving's shoulder surgery and 195-pound frame create durability and size concerns.

Bob Harris expresses lack of trust in Bucky Irving's recovery from shoulder surgery; Irving is 195 pounds (undersized for the position) and did not work out at OTAs, raising durability concerns that make him a risky bet for consistent playing time in Tampa Bay's backfield. The combination of recent injury and lack of ideal size creates draft trust issues.
