I just completed what will hopefully be one of the most advantageous top 400 updates of the year for you, the subscriber. We've got a large enough sample that we can start making more significant conclusions on breakout guys and players who may have hit a wall after a promotion. 

It's one of my favorite updates of the year for that reason. There were 57 prospects added, and I listed all of them for your convenience, as well as the biggest risers and fallers. 

This is the last wholesale update before the draft. I typically add around 60-70 guys to the top 400 on the update directly after the draft, so upwards of 20 percent of the guys currently on the top 400 will fall off the list in a few weeks.

I hope you enjoy!
