Irving overvalued at ADP 34.4; regressed with injury concerns and Gainwell competition.

Irving is overvalued at ADP 34.4 as RB17 after regressing from his rookie season (RB13, 14.4 PPR per game). He missed seven games last year, had offseason shoulder surgery, and averaged two fewer yards per rushing attempt and 0.28 fewer fantasy points per touch compared to his rookie season. The Buccaneers signed Kenneth Gainwell to a significant free-agent contract and called him a co-starter, signaling lack of trust in Irving as a featured back.
