ADP vs. AAP!!!
Coffee is rollin along...
By design, a 15 team serpentine draft forces the hand of it's drafters at different spots in the draft, be it a run on closers, starters , speed, etc. The construction of your team is based largely on how the draft is unfolding, and the same player could have an extremely different team, based on the league mates draft flow, his own draft slot, or participating or bucking a run, and the resulting adjustments.
On the other hand...the same person could do 10 auctions, and construct their team in a similar manner, with certain foundation pieces in all 10 leagues if one desired.
Assuming all leagues were serious money to the players...would you say a list of ADP would be a more accurate reading of player values, or a list of Average Auction Prices (AAP) ???
Thinking this over a bit, I lean toward a high stakes mixed AAP list to be the better standard to go by when placing a cheat sheet in order.
If put to a vote in a poll, which would you vote for and why?

The ADP is nothing more than the consensus of a group of mediocre minds huddling together trying to convince themselves they know what they are doing

But then again I am not a "retired astro physist" from Flint, MI. I didn't even know the Jetsen's dog had a physicians assistant. Did you train your own successor?

Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

~Lance Just my two cents...AAP has little or no value to a snake draft. A snake draft is position and opportunity. An auction is value perception and resources.
This dichotomy (I put that word in in case any "retired astro physist" are around) is best shown when $30 pitchers go several rounds after the $20 MI is drafted in the snake. In reverse, in an auction several players will go for less than five bucks endgame, but in the draft these same players are drafted in the middle rounds.
Same player pool, but two separate and barely related tools of measurement.
Just thoughts...

IMHO
without getting into a bunch of BS, i can definitely correlate auction value VS serpentine draft value.
