It’s never too early to start planning for next season. One of my rituals the past few years has been to participate in the SiriusXM Fantasy Mock Draft. the week right after the season. It’s a great exercise for this point of the calendar and will lay the foundation for our off-season prep.
Let’s take a look at the draft board
