From the article

Irving is the per-game RB16 on RB20 usage in half PPR. His rookie season was electric with an elite play-caller and healthy OL, while last year's advanced numbers had Irving near the very bottom with the OL and himself injured. The Bucs OL could be the best in the NFL this year, and Irving has practiced for weeks coming off a shoulder surgery. There is certainly upside right out of the gate.
