...assuming of course all were available at that point....!
Basically, but I would have Peralta on this list also for power instead of Ramirez. If you end up with some speed early it may make sense to wait on Peralta or Hardy later.

I agree... problem for me is I have keepers rounds 11-14.. so I figure I'm gonna have to grab best available SS by the 10th round... if a value SS doesnt fall to be before then... Likely Peralta/Hardy will be off the board by the 15th.. after those 2, the position falls off even more... may cause me to reach some for a guy like Gordon/Ramirez on the 10th, but may have to do it, I figure....
It really depends on which site you're going to be drafting. A lot of people will draft according to how each site has them ranked. For example ESPN has Dee Gordon at 133 and Yahoo has him at 96... that's a difference of nearly 4 rounds. I've seen him go as high as the 8th round in some mocks that I've been doing. I believe that Jeter is more stable across the board and Aybar is consistently in the 15th round or so.
Personally have them at Gordon, Jeter, Aybar and Bonifacio. I see Jeter and Gordon gone by the time you pick in the 15th, most likely Aybar will still be around. Peralta is way down this year (at least on Yahoo) so you'd be able to get him closer to the 20th. (12 team mock drafts) Your league may be different though. You know what you're going to get out of Aybar and I can't justify reaching for Gordon in the 9th or 10th round, just too much uncertainty.
They are all so close, that I don't think I would take one of this bunch until at least one or two of them were off the board. I would be perfectly happy with any of the top 3, and would probably grab the latest one of the 3 to fall.
