Through seven weeks of the season, there are some surprising names at the top of the positional rankings for average fantasy points per game. Maybe this is the usual case through seven weeks of the season. And maybe seven weeks are too small a sample size and things will change dramatically the rest of the season. However, it was interesting to me to see at least one player taken out of the top 100 ADP or even undrafted among the top four at each fantasy position.

This gives you some idea how even experts missed the boat on these players.
And yes I realize Arian Foster's ADP shot up like a rocket late in the preseason (he went in the second round in my World Championships of Fantasy Football league [WCOFF]), but he could have been had for peanuts earlier in the preseason.
