SP are always more important.
The big thing to keep in mind is that your team as drafted will have maybe 3-4 of the original guys you drafted.
Oh, and try to take injured guys from 2006/guys with huge potential towards the end. You're better off taking, for example, a young SP then a guy like Mark Redman. You know what you're getting out of Redman, whereas with the young kid he could surprise and be a huge help to your team. Think Verlander for last year.
