2010 Fantasy Sleeper and Breakout Players
Here are my candidates for Come Back Player of the Year or Break Out Players to look out for on draft day:
1) Carlos Gonzalez -OF Rockies (a no-brainer here) – round 10-12 this guy should be there. Can put up gawdy Beltran like numbers in his first full season.
2) Connor Jackson – 1B D’Backs – virtually going un drafted in most 12 team mixed leagues. Pick him up late and be pleasantly surprised this season.

NFL.com creating list of 75 most valuable NFL Draft picks of all time
This year is the 75th NFL Draft. In conjunction with this anniversary, the NFL is looking to determine the 75 most valuable draft picks of all time. They've compiled a list of 10 players from every team. We begin the process of determining the Most Valuable Draft Pick by choosing between pairs of players randomly generated from the list of 320 greats. After selecting winners of 30 random matchups, fans will begin to build their own Top 10 list. Fans may continue to vote in order to make changes to their personal Top 10 list as well as the All-Time Top 10 announced at the Draft.
