    "writeup": "Standard-scoring rooms still take Irving as the RB14 at pick 22 while half-PPR drafters let him slide to 37.6, and the cheaper price is reading the 2025 data more honestly. Everything about his rushing year cratered: 3.4 yards per carry in the 4th percentile, rush yards over expected of minus 0.74 per attempt, dead last among all 48 qualified backs, and just 1.76 yards before contact, which spreads real blame to Tampa Bay's blocking. His run paths were also among the longest at the position, 92nd percentile, so he spent the season bouncing runs sideways and getting nothing for the detours. The receiving value held, with six broken tackles after the catch (87th percentile) and an 82nd-percentile snap share across the ten games he managed, and he is still only 23. A 207-point projection slots him RB20, right where the half-PPR market already has him and far below the second-round standard price. Anyone paying the aggressive number is betting the efficiency collapse was injury and blocking noise rather than a genuine decline, and the before-contact figure supports about half of that argument.",
