Question about adp. possible draft strategy?

[jizzatch 0]

Question about average draft position. What is the significance of a player being in the top 100 in terms of adp, but being drafted in only 50-75% of the leagues? I compiled a list of 9 players out of the top 50 from an ADP I got from antsports. It looks to me that these are mostly potential sleepers or busts candidates. I think they are also players to look for as potential late round steals.

 

 

14 Brian Westbrook RB PHI 2.02.50 1.07 2.1 2.98 52 71%

25 Anquan Boldin WR ARI 3.01.79 2.09 3.07 2.59 48 66%

29 Reggie Wayne WR IND 3.05.28 2.11 4.05 3.46 46 63%

37 Darrell Jackson WR SEA 3.12.58 3.04 4.1 4.23 53 73%

38 Santana Moss WR WAS 4.01.65 3.04 5.02 4.66 55 75%

41 Tatum Bell RB DEN 4.04.42 2.09 5.12 8.9 45 62%

45 Andre Johnson WR HOU 4.09.29 3.09 5.08 5.57 51 70%

50 Matt Hasselbec QB SEA 4.12.96 3.09 6.03 6.89 47 64%

 

Also, Clinton Portis had a relatively low 82 % for being #4 ranked in ADP.

 

I am just wondering if anyone else uses this as a strategy when drafting. And what do you make of these players lower percentage being drafted? For example, does this mean Portis and Westbrook are viewed as potential busts? Could the opposite be true lower down the list, where a low percentage could indicate a possible sleeper or late round steal, such as Lendale White of Tennessee?
