In the third season of the Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast, there is now a spinoff. Sure, spinoffs traditionally can go bad as we’ve seen in network television via disasters like Joey, The Ropers and Saved by the Bell: The College Years. Striving to be more like successful spinoffs such as The Jeffersons, Frasier and The Suite Life On Deck, we offer you the new 20-episode edition of The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast: Bucs Bulletin.

This podcast is still hosted by Todd, still talks about fantasy football, but shines a specific spotlight on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers every week. Once the regular season begins, you’ll get the full fantasy breakdown of that week’s Tampa Bay game in terms of who to start, sit, claim on waivers for the Bucs and their opponent. In this first of four episodes leading up to the opener at New Orleans, Todd looks at the fantasy value of the QB position for 2018 and how to play or pass on Winston and FitzMagic in season-long and DFS.

Talks OL bodies.

Joe had a funny feeling back several months ago about the right side of the Bucs’ offensive line. [read more]

It’s tough to fully judge running backs in Bucs training camp. It’s just not real football.

Breaking tackles is not part of the equation — by design — and not everything is full speed. [read more]

Ryan Jensen wants fans to pay attention

The question had to be asked of the Buccaneers’ very expensive new center. [read more]

It’s easy to forget that Jason Licht invested a 2016 fourth-round pick into Ryan Smith and that Smith was effectively a rookie getting a ton of snaps in 2017. [read more]
