C - Posey - reminds me of Mauer a few years ago before disappointing majorly
1B - Rizzo - like him but not where he's being drafted
2B - Hill - cannot trust him, incredibly inconsistent
3B - Wright - great to have when healthy, but therein lies the problem
SS - Tulo - far and away the best SS when healthy, but again, that's the problem
OF - CarGo - steals are declining and is becoming an injury risk
OF - BJ Upton - had a career year and still isn't justifying his ADP
OF - Ellsbury - just threw him in there as a final OF, but I wouldn't want him at his ADP
SP - Dickey - his performance wasn't a total fluke, but age will catch up with him
SP - Greinke - been saying this for years
SP - Moore - even if he puts it together, he has no offense to support him
RP - Rodney - last year came out of nowhere

I've done that before, but it's VERY tricky. Last year, venters, Clippard, and Robertson all had their ratios blow up way above their 2011 numbers..and they were the best coming out of that year.
IF you can, you want to grab guys like Perkins and Wilhemson who tend to go later in drafts. Then, late in the draft, grab guys like Luke Gregorson or Ryan Cook who backstop closers who will almost certainly get injured. Last, you want to be aggressive on the wire for new vlosers even if you've been burned by this before....as one of the commenters said, you need the saves, and hopefully you drafted stron SP so the ERA and WHIP will be taken care of.
