James Yarcho and I came back this week to continue talking Buccaneers players in fantasy football, and were joined by yet another special guest fantasy expert.

When talking about Buccaneers in fantasy football, it’s important to get an outside view of things to keep draft stock in perspective.

Jake Arthur is a Colts fan and the team manager ensuring top-notch coverage of Indy’s favorite team is churned out over at Pro Football Spot.

In addition to this, Arthur always runs the PFS fantasy football content and holds the title of featured analyst and assistant director of NFL content.

I mean, you don’t get people on your podcast with much more involvement in keeping the pulse of all things football.

So, when he agreed to be on the podcast we immediately took advantage of the opportunity and brought him on to our wide receiver focused episode.

Among topics discussed were Mike Evans’ ranking on Jake’s initial wide receiver rankings and the draft picture for guys like Adam Humphries and Chris Godwin.

The three of us also discuss various scoring systems and how to navigate your draft based on standard or half/full point per reception.

We also talked quarterback and wide receiver pairings where three of the top five duos come out of the loaded NFC South.

Jake will also tell everyone which players to target that your draft-mates will likely be sleeping on as well as which players to avoid like a plague. Don’t fall into the trap of drafting a name over production!
