How Does Your Fantasy Draft Look 3 Months Later?

November 13th, 2018
Todd pulls out the draft boards from both his own personal Foundation league and the GOLFF league of podcast listeners who came together at Hooters in August. Obviously, we all know by now that the owner who took Gurley at #1 is very happy and the owner who followed him by taking Bell at #2 feels like Jason Licht after choosing a place kicker. Or Jason Licht after choosing a running back. Or Jason Licht after choosing a defensive back.
.
Todd’s first six picks in his Foundation league seemingly make him a candidate to replace Licht and he spotlights other terrific choices in the podcast league from his fellow owners. Todd also illustrates how 2018 was a season where some players drafted were simply given up on too early, only to pay dividends later for owners who picked them up on waivers (Chubb, Murray, Trubisky). Listen to the podcast and then email any additional questions to ToddWrightFantasyFootball@gmail.com. The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast is also sponsored by The Eagles Golf Club, home of the first Todd Wright Tour golf event of 2019 on Super Bowl Saturday.

“Find A Love Of The Game”

November 12th, 2018

BY IRA KAUFMAN

Here we are again on Buccaneer Boulevard, talking about finishing out a lost season with pride.

We’re all too familiar with this scenario as Buc fans head toward Thanksgiving with one eye on the cranberry sauce and another on the next NFL draft.

Brent Grimes talks to Ira

It’s painful to look at the standings and even more painful to remember that this team was once the talk of the league.

When the Tampa Bay locker room opened Sunday, I risked a pulled hamstring by running after Brent Grimes. The veteran corner hadn’t talked publicly for awhile and he was booking toward the exit door when I blocked his path. [read more]
