C+. Running back. . Bucky Irving. Bucky Irving
Irving, former Duck running back, showed off his quick twitch abilities and surprising strength despite his smaller stature.
He lept up to a 29.50-inch vertical and a 9-foot, 7-inch broad jump. Irving dropped down in the wide receiver list with slightly smaller numbers from the jumping drills.
While he ran a 4.55 in the 40-yard dash, finding himself closer to the back of the pack, his performance during the on-field drills helped boost Irving’s draft stock.
