I started with his rankings last year, moved guys around for about two weeks, and did well in all of my drafts. It's a nice resource, because all the guys are typed into a spreadsheet for you.
But, alas, it is a scrambled ranking, from sites all over the place. I would start here, but not make this your final list. We are only talking about ten or so drafts, some held some time ago, over many formats.
RotoAuthority made this known last year, and is giving a nice shoutout again this year.
FWIW, the ADP on Sportsline is working -- these are on league drafts, not mocks. I think you can only get it if you are in a league. The numbers are avg pick, trennd, hi/lo, and % drafted. This sample is roto.

It's not surprising that these ADP's are nearly identical to CBS's wacky rankings. Prince = 17.11? When other sites start publishing their ADP's I'm going to again generate an ADP spreadsheet, which I did last year. What you'll see is that each site's ADP's are highly influenced by their own rankings, likely because people use autodrafting or are too lazy to do their own research.

Yeah, that's what sucks about going off of a site's ADPs and checking out an actual mock like we have here. I think you get a better idea of what real FBers are going to do. Nothing wrong with getting a rough idea from a site like CBS though. Just wouldn't use it as your Bible is all.
