Mock Draft Central provides more than a great mock drafting platform and ADP reports. It also proves a Fantasy Trend report that helps see which players are hot and which are not.
I typically use the report to see which players are hot and which players are breaking on to the fantasy draft scene. Below is a list of the former.
After seeing Chase Utley climbing, I next noticed most of the top movers occurred in the double-digit rounds. What I take away is the awareness that my "sleepers" will need to be grabbed a round or two sooner than I originally projected.
Additionally, Texas Rangers' 1B/3B Chris Davis is not a sleeper. Two weeks ago, he was being taken in the 7th round. Now he is being taken in the 6th. I doubt he can rise much higher than that given the quality of players he would have to surpass. The twelve players being taken ahead of Davis are SP Cliff Lee, 1B Carlos Pena, OF Adam Dunn, C Geovanny Soto, OF Magglio Ordonez, OF Bobby Abreu, SS Rafael Furcal, RP Brad Lidge, 2B Dan Uggla, OF Jacoby Ellsbury, OF Nate McLouth and OF Corey Hart.
