Previous editions of The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast spotlighted multiple teams that consider themselves Super Bowl contenders possibly making a deal for running back help. One was Jacksonville and that was confirmed on Friday when the Jaguars, reeling from two blowouts on the road, acquired Carlos Hyde from the Browns. Sources in Jacksonville were quick to point out that Leonard Fournette will be ready to go soon, but Todd’s heard that before and believes otherwise. Todd examines the odd timing of a trade that eliminates Hyde from playing at all this week, what it means for both Browns running backs and discusses how unattractive options on the waiver wire may not be as bad as you think. Todd encourages your personal roster and lineup questions at ToddWrightFantasyFootball@gmail.com. Please just get them in before Sunday morning to make sure you receive a response.

Gerald McCoy is out with a bad calf so the manbeast rookie is in.

Vita Vea will make his first start on Sunday, Dirk Koetter announced on the Buccaneers Radio Network. The head coach implied that Vea is behind Beau Allen on the depth chart, but it won’t matter against the Browns.

Change is coming to the Buccaneers defensive line. [read more]

The Browns, if you don’t think Bucs coach Dirk Koetter is blowing smoke, have the best rushing attack the Bucs have faced this season. [read more]

Defensive tackle Beau Allen

Talks Bucs defense.

When a successful former NFL head coach becomes a coordinator and then is so bad at his job he’s fired mid-season, that warrants a full segment of discussion on “Pro Football Talk Live” on NBC Sports Network with the creator, curator and overall guru of Pro Football Talk, the great Mike Florio, and long-time NFL scribe Peter King.

“Jason, you realize what a home loss to the Browns means, right?”

When a team is at a crossroads, fans and media often say the team’s next game is a “must-win.”

That’s not the case in Tampa. [read more]

Twice in the past three weeks the Browns have channeled their inner Buccaneers, allowing 45 points to the Raiders in Oakland and 38 to the Chargers in front of the Dawg Pound.

They’re a battered and bruised defense, now down to a third-string cornerback starting. Their starting center is highly questionable, too. Strong video here by the Cleveland.com beat folks.
