Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast.

0:16.3

I'm your host Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score.

Appreciate you joining us today. Hopefully you've already checked out the first two shows of the week. We had the WaverWire episode on Monday. I did players to buy or sell on Tuesday. And today we'll be getting you ready for week three with our guest Ben Gretsch of stealing signals. Before we get him in here, though, a couple quick things to go over.

Burroughs actually absorbed a league leading 13 sacks so far, but things are going to turn around here.
