Running backs were flying off the board, so I felt lucky to land Bucky Irving here in the fifth round. Kenny Gainwell could take away some of the passing-down work, which may limit Irving's receiving ceiling a bit, but he should still handle the bulk of the rushing workload. If Irving can maintain a solid role in the passing game while leading Tampa Bay in carries, I think he has legitimate Top-10 RB upside this season.
