Hello everybody and welcome to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone.

0:20.2

I'm also the lead fantasy analyst at the score, and I have been fortunate enough to be one of the

0:24.9

most accurate rankers in the industry over the last six years, and that is a trend that

0:29.1

I am going to continue this season.

0:31.7

I'm happy to have my co-host with me, David P. Woods, Woods is a supervising editor at

0:36.1

the score, and he is also the man who,

0:38.5

I believe, was regretfully responsible for the inception of the fat Eddie Lacey Twitter

0:43.5

sensation a few years back. Is that how it went woods? Yeah, that was me, actually. Yeah,

0:48.7

I remember that was five years ago now. I had just started at the score, and I was browsing a

0:53.2

photo gallery on the Green Bay Packers website of just training camp photos. I saw one of Eddie Lacey looking really, really thick, tweeted out a photo of it with a caption something like, what has Eddie Lacey been eating? And a bunch of people saw it, got a lot of retweets. And pretty soon, you know, Lacey was getting asked about it at camp. And, you know, I do feel kind of bad about that.

1:12.3

So, Eddie Lacey, you're probably not listening, but you're not playing any NFL football this fall. Maybe you're playing fantasy football. Maybe you're getting ready for your draft. So if you are listening, I'm sorry about that. Is there any worry that Lacey's at home, like throwing darts at a picture of you or anything like that? Well, I certainly hope not. And honestly, I probably angered some other NFL players more than him. So maybe we'll talk about that on another episode. We'll definitely save that for another episode. All right. So it's good to be back in studio. This is our second episode. And we're just getting started here. We're going to be doing this twice a week moving forward. So make sure that you subscribe to the podcast. You can also rate and review us wherever you're listening, and that is much

appreciated. On the first episode, we ran through the quarterback position. We gave you our thoughts

1:52.8

on the guys we like, the guys we don't like, and generally just how we're approaching that

1:57.0

spot in the draft. Today, we're going to tackle running backs and arguably the most important position in all of fantasy football. And we're going to tackle running backs and arguably the most

2:01.4

important position in all of fantasy football. And we're going to talk about everything from

2:04.9

breakouts to busts, some risky picks that you might want to gamble on, guys who could be

2:09.9

bounced back candidates after maybe not a great year last season. And we'll give you our

2:13.9

picks for the running backs. We'll give one each, the running backs that are going to lead you to a fantasy title this year. You definitely want to hear that. And then we're going to finish things up with a couple bold predictions for the running back position. As always, don't forget to check out our content on the score app. We have our 2018 fantasy football draft kit there. And that's been up since May. We update it daily.
