Is there a valid reason Mike Trout went 219th in a very recent draft?
Stanton-214
Harper-172

Was this a draw the name from a hat NFBC draft?

Probably an Auction messing things up?

That's not it. The list stipulates (Non Auction). Besides, what little I know about auctions owners would blow their wads way sooner than those ranks. Something goofy went down.

It would be the keeper league that is throwing off the ADP. McCutchen taken 1st and Strasburg 2nd..

who would take trout and harper that late in a keeper league? Or stanton for that matter

They were kept from last year at their original draft position

How many years do they keep their keepers? I mean, Stanton was 22/59 in 359 AB in 2010. Either way, Keeper lgs shouldn't be included in these ADP's. Just an observation because I couldn't help to notice Braun leapfrog over Trout, and more importantly, why.

I wasn't in the keeper league when Stanton was drafted, but I would assume he was likely brought up from the minors in the keeper league, getting the automatic 15th round draft position.

I am sure they will fix the ADP...

EXACTLY, DON'T WORRY ABOUT OTHERS IF YOU WANT SOMEONE GRAB THEM, IF YOU THINK THEY WILL SLIDE BACK TO YOU NEXT ROUND, DON'T COUNT ON IT. THESE ADP'S ARE MOSTLY DRAFT CHAMPION LEAGUES, THE MAIN EVENTS WILL BE DIFFERENT. I HAVE NOTICED THOUGH THIS YEAR SP GOING SOONER, I WONDER HOW MUCH ADP HAS TO DO WITH IT.

GOOD LUCK ALL!!!

That's from KJ's Keeper League that we added yesterday. I didn't have time yesterday to pull those results from the ADPs. I'll get that done today if possible, but have no fear he didn't go 219th in any live or online draft recently.

Greg, thanks for the clarification.

Poopy, of course I'm going to take who I want. The ADP is no Bible for me, but a great tool to be used. I think some of these slots are crazy, but close to 300 drafts gives you an idea of who might slide, and who you might have to reach for. Each draft is different of course-some may value the big 3 arms more, and some might be stick-happy. I don't even have a top 3 slot-just noticed how far Braun had been slipping(guess from the Biogenesis lawsuit), so I was surprised to see he had jumped Trout, and then the '217' for the latest draft spot for him made me wonder. Just asking a ??
