Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score.

I want to wish you a big happy new year.

It's the first episode of 2020.

Took a little bit of time off around the holidays, got to spend some time with family.

I also got to celebrate my first place.

Finish is the most accurate fantasy ranker in 2019 out of 130 or so analysts who took

part in that fantasy pros competition and if you've

been listening to the podcast you know how much I've been gunned for that so definitely

had to celebrate I didn't go full Alexander Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals I

mean I wasn't drunkenly swimming and dancing in fountains anywhere but maybe not far

off on a couple of those nights over the

holidays. Either way, we're back at it now. I've already released my early rankings for 2020,

and that's what I want to go over with a little more depth today. Give you some insight on

how I feel about certain players, who I'm planning on targeting, and some of the players

that I'm actually already thinking about

avoiding next year unless something changes. And that is very important to mention we are so

early in the process here. We still have teams hiring coaches. I love that Matt Rule hire for the

Panthers. That is a great, great hire there. Very excited about that one. And we're going to discuss

the coaching hires, the coordinator hires, all that stuff on an upcoming episode once they're all done. We'll also help you get familiar with the top prospects in this year's NFL draft. Last January, we did the same thing because this is the time of year when I dive into that stuff. During the NFL season, I can't really. during the regular season when we're in the heart of the fantasy content i just don't have time to go over that stuff during the NFL season. I can't really. During the regular season, when we're in the heart of the fantasy content, I just don't have time to go over that stuff in depth. Now I do in January. I really start to dive into it. So we're going to have somebody on the podcast to talk to you about that to get you familiar with some of those players. We're also going to preview some of the best free agents that are hitting the market this

year, what that could mean, not just for them, but also for the players and the teams that

they're leaving.

It never ends, folks.
