it has to be Howard - he has been the most productive offensive players over the last 2 years - don't let the position fool you after you get past the top 1 or 2 guys most positions plateau.
there is very little difference between jeter, reyes, troy t, peralta and jj hardy in 5 x 5 leagues. So take the best offensive player available.
Howard and any one of those SS will be more porductive for you than Reyes and possibly Paul K of Mourneau or Berkman
Also you can wait on a third baseman - don't reach for Adkins - Cabera / Arod and Wright will be gone - don't reach for ARam , Adkins or Braun - Blaylock , Jones, Encarcion, Zimmerman, should be there for you later and just as productive.
Holliday will be the most productive OF but not even close to Howard
