Trends


"Irving is a strong 2025 breakout candidate following an impressive rookie season. The fourth-round pick didn't play on over half the snaps in a game until Week 6, but was fantasy's No. 10 RB from that point on. He produced 15-plus fantasy points in nine of his final 12 games, with injury responsible for two duds. Irving's efficiency was elite, as his 5.4 YPC, 2.5 YAC, 90% catch rate and 7.5 RAC were all top 5 among RBs. Irving will defer some work to Rachaad White, and his 192-frame raises obvious durability questions, but he looked the part as a rookie and is well positioned for 15-plus touches per game in a good offense. At worst, he's a fringe RB1."


"Irving proved capable of handling a true workhorse role, logging a new career high in rush attempts. As his final implies, the Panthers made the second-year back work hard for his yards, but Irving was able to move the chains on five occasions, certainly a critical stat in what turned out to be a narrow win. Irving finishes his injury-hampered regular season with 588 rushing yards at just 3.4 yards per carry, but he'll have a chance for better production in the wild-card round next weekend if the Saints can upend or tie the Falcons on Sunday."

Braelon Allen

Draft: RD 4, PICK 134
Injury Status: H



I. Player News & Analysis

Trends


"Allen is back for Year 2 in New York after soaking up 111 touches as a rookie. The 2024 fourth-round pick quickly stepped into a change-of-pace role behind Breece Hall and was utilized as both a rusher (5.4 carries per game) and receiver (1.7 targets per game). His efficiency wasn't overly impressive (3.6 YPC, 5.1 YPT) and he eventually deferred some work to 2024 fifth-rounder Isaiah Davis, but it's notable that he's still one of the league's youngest backs at 21-years-old. Despite speculation of a committee approach, Hall figures to remain the lead, or at least �1A' back this season, with Allen and Davis battling for the rest of the touches. That won't be enough for consistent fantasy output. Allen is only worth a late pick in deep leagues."


"Allen was injured on a kickoff return late in the second quarter when a defender was pushed down in front of him and fell into his knee. He was able to walk off the field and to the locker room under his own power, but Allen was quickly ruled out. Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis will be counted on to handle the majority of work out of the backfield for the rest of the game."
