This note is the result of my draft last year. I was really impressed by Justin Verlander and using ADPs had planned to pick him around round 14 in my 16 team league. I missed him by two slots. Why? Well, the basic reason was that I relied on redraft ADPs, rather than keeper ADPs. So, learn from my mistake. Here's a list of guys who have the biggest movement forward in keeper drafts. The keeper ADPs are an average from the mockdraftcentral and the sportsfanatics keeper drafts. The redraft ADPs are a mix of Yahoo numbers and the rotoauthority expert list.
Here's the guys who move up at least 12 spots (one round in a standard league). The first number is their redraft ADP. The second number is their keeper ADP. The third number is the number of picks earlier they may be picked in a keeper draft.
