Every year there are certain players that fly under the radar that can help your team. Here are nine players (position players and pitchers) that you should consider drafting.

The Cleveland Browns acquired wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. last week in exchange for a first round pick in this year’s draft (17th overall), a 3rd round pick in this year’s draft and safety Jabril Peppers. The Browns paid a fairly steep price for one of the game’s best receivers in the NFL. If Beckham stays healthy however, he is an elite level talent that should thrive playing in head…
