Khalil Mack To The Bears, Bucs’ Week 4 Opponent

Saturday, September 1st, 2018

It looks like the Chicago Bears also believe in the close-game theory.

With a 5-11 record last year just like the Bucs, and a 2-6 record in one-score games with the NFL’s 10th-ranked defense, the Bears just made a very bold move. (more…)

The Day Of The Turk

Saturday, September 1st, 2018

Looking For Change In Your Life? No, Don’t Grow A Full Beard. Switch To A Two-QB Fantasy League

Friday, August 31st, 2018
You know how you’ve always made fun of that guy or girl in your league who takes Aaron Rodgers too early? Or Tom Brady? Or maybe Deshawn Watson this year? Well, everything changes when you play in a 2QB league and Todd took his personal league into that great unknown for 2018.
.
In this edition of The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast, Todd gives you a full review of how he studies these leagues, the elevated draft value of quarterbacks and ultimately how it played out in a live draft among his owners this week. In addition to quarterbacks going much higher than in traditional leagues that start just one at that position, the ripple effect on other players is very intriguing. Think about it: With many QB’s going up on boards, that means some other household names at running back and wide receiver have to drop to make room. Who dropped and how far?
.
Listen to the podcast and find out. (Here’s a hint: Todd took Jarvis Landry in the seventh round and Tevin Coleman in round 12) Remember, Todd is also hosting a second event at Hooters for the season opener on Thursday, September 6th. There will be plenty of fantasy football talk, prizes and of course those world famous Hooters girls. For your invitation (and you can bring up to three guests), just reach out to ToddWrightFantasyFootball@gmail.com.
