Thats way too early man.  You can get people in later rounds that do the same things he does.
There are ALWAYS productive FA's to pickup in your league.  First round is way too valuable to be dicking around with figgins.

BTW: This is all in my humble -3 consecutive league titles- opinion

In a redraft, no way.

In a league with a lot of keepers, sure.

But in most leagues, I don't think so. Probably a mid-second to early-third pick.

In a normal 12-team league, I think Figgins probably goes off the board around pick 20-30. Yeah, the positional versatility is nice (and he is probably the 2nd best 2B this year), but there's still a lot of players better than him

because if he strains a hammy, you've got an ordinary guy that you spent big money for.

But there's an argument to be made for him, for two reasons:

1) He actually picks it up in the second half. That's rare for a speed guy. Most lose it when the season gets long.

Figgins SBs for career:
Pre All Star Break: 60 for 82 (73%)
Post: 49 for 64 (76%)

2. He's 28. Peak time.
3. It's hard to argue with 62 (!) bags stolen, when only 4 guys in MLB broke 50 in 2005.

I'd think about him in Ichiro territory -- 15 to 25 -- draft a team of heavy-legged slugs around him, and hope for the best.

P.S. If you play in a league that counts triples as a category, he's a lock for the top 10.
