BSPN Projects Doom For Mike Smith

September 4th, 2018

“Hello, Staples? Are my resumes ready for pick-up?”

If what the four-letter predicts comes true, Joe thinks it is safe to also predict that Bucs defensive coordinator Mike Smith will not return for the 2019 season. [read more]

Gordon No Threat To Bucs

September 4th, 2018

“Batman? Commissioner Gordon here. Been trying to reach you for hours but the Batphone was always busy. Is Robin stalking my daughter Batgirl again?”

Unless someone plans to get a major jump on the “Bourbon Street Takeover” festivities way, way early, Tropical Storm Gordon will not have any effect on the Bucs’ season opener at New Orleans Sunday. [read more]

Todd Made McKinnon “Untouchable” Weeks Ago. Did You Listen? – That And More On The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast

September 4th, 2018
Remember those episodes weeks ago where Todd identified minimum one player (or one entire position) per team as untouchable for various reasons in your season-long fantasy drafts? He had Martavis Bryant on there. Cut. He had Ronald Jones II on there. (Would have been cut by any other GM not named Jason Licht.) And he had Jerick McKinnon on there as well. Done for the season.
.
In this edition of the Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast, Todd reviews the predictable fall of McKinnon and how John Lynch just made a $30M mistake. Ironically, many of you who ignored Todd’s advice and drafted McKinnon in the third or fourth round might have also taken Le’Veon Bell in the first round. And that is getting interesting too. No, Bell does not have a knee problem. Bell has a contract problem. And the recent record-breaking deals for Rodgers, Beckham, Donald and Mack may make the Bell situation a lot tougher for the Steelers. Remember to email ToddWrightFantasyFootball@gmail.com with any draft questions and to ask to be placed on the guest list for the Hooters appearance at 4th Street North in St. Pete on Thursday night for the NFL season opener. You can bring a +1, +2 or even a +3 that night, play daily fantasy no purchase necessary for prizes from Hooters, JoeBucsFan.com and Todd Wright Tour golf, and enjoy those world famous Hooters girls.

September 3rd, 2018

BY IRA KAUFMAN
