Listeners can tune in to this episode, which is the ultimate pre-draft podcast, to ensure they are well-prepared for their important holiday weekend drafts.\n\nBoone's first piece of advice is to draft running backs (RBs) early.

Boone's second advice is to prioritize quarterbacks (QB) as the last starter you draft. Harmon emphasizes the importance of not being afraid to say \"yes\" to concentrated elite ecosystems in your draft.\n\nNorris's second advice focuses on drafting the offensive line (OL), while Boone suggests waiting until the final two rounds to draft defense or kickers.

The Toyota Fantasy Hotline segment features Harmon and Chris Allen answering last-minute draft questions.",
