We also discuss Erik’s series of posts where he listed the top players by position over the first month of the season and highlight some of the bigger fantasy surprises and disappointments so far this year.

Note: There are some small sound quality issues on Erik’s end during a few parts of the podcast as his internet connection was giving him a little trouble. It happens very sporadically and all it does is make his silky smooth voice a little tougher to understand at certain parts.

Notes to the Show

You can find the SI article discussed in the podcast here.

We learned about the Aaron Brooks situation (and suspension) after the podcast, otherwise we would have talked about it. My quick read is that it’s very bad news for Brooks’ owners. He’s not droppable at the moment, but if you own Brooks you can only hope that it’s resolved one way (hug it out) or another (trade) as soon as possible. If you can trade him for anything of value in your league, make it happen.

Spoilers To Follow!
