The lead up to dynasty rookie drafts, including the Senior Bowl, is a winnowing process. Owners should cast a wide net in search of prospects. Watching tape, reading up on metrics and studying a lot of players will inform you about the class. At each point of the pre-draft process, players should eliminate themselves from your draft board.
By the time rookie drafts begin in earnest in May, the number of target players is small. Each year will range in number, but generally focusing on about a dozen players in rookie drafts will sharpen your draft process. This will allow you to move up and down the draft with comfort to acquire your targets.
