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.
