Welcome everyone to the SCORE fantasy football podcast.

0:17.1

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

0:20.7

Thank you so much for hanging out with us today. This is the official start of our regular season content. I know some of you still have drafts happening over the next few days. So do I. And if something big happens, I'm going to update the score of fantasy football draft kit again. Do not worry about that. It's got everything you need in there for your drafts. Hopefully you've been making good use of it over the last few weeks here. But in terms of my content moving forward, we're flipping the page now to week one, and that all starts today. I tweeted out my new content schedule for the regular season this year. There are a few changes in there. Let's just go over it real quickly now on Mondays.

0:55.4

It's going to be the same on Mondays. The early waiverware and injury roundup episode,

0:59.6

that'll go out early afternoon. I'll go over all the injuries from the Sunday games.

1:04.0

I'll give you my top waiver wire ads for the week. And then later in the day, I'll put out

1:08.2

the full waiverware column on Monday nights. Normally before the Monday nighter begins, sometimes in the first half of the Monday nighter, depends how long it's taking me to get it together. And if I'm running late or not. But in that one, I cover like 50 plus players that you can consider picking up. You know, depending on the size of your league, I try to get something in there for everybody. So obvious pickups all the way down to guys who aren't even rostered in any leagues. And I break it all down into categories as well. So you can kind of use that as your waiver guide, no matter what kind of league you're in. On Tuesday, and this is probably the big change that everybody's going to be excited about, I'm going to put my rest of season rankings and trade value charts. I'm going to put those out on Tuesday afternoon. Now, that's a day earlier than I've done it in years past. And that's because so many of you have asked me over the last couple seasons, please do it on Tuesday. It would help us make our waiver or wire decision. So I'm going to make that happen for you this season. required a little shuffling around on my schedule and then later on Tuesday I'll still put out the

2:05.6

first edition of my week one rankings or week two or whatever week it is we'll just say week one

2:10.6

for the sake of it here so I'll have that waiver wire column out on Monday night the trade

2:15.0

value charts out on Tuesday afternoon and then the

2:18.6
