Ron Stewart on Bucky Irving

Video9 Players You NEED to Draft BEFORE They Bounce BackCaptured July 19, 2026

From the video

I still like Bucky Irving. Bucky Irving to me feels a lot like James Cook last year... I think it's a massive upside swing that in year three he could truly break out, have his first RB1 point per game type season.

Positive signalBreakout

Irving feels similar to James Cook last year and has massive upside to break out in year three with an RB1 point-per-game season, drafted as RB24.
