Interesting to look back to last year's team finished 57 overall -

Looking at player selection in last year's top 5......the only player on all 5 teams is Arian Foster
..Witten, Aaron Hernandez, Ahmad Bradshaw and Mike Williams (TB) are on 4 of the 5 teams
..the number of RB's ranged from 4-8
..the number of WR's ranged from 7-9
..the number of TE's ranged from 2-4
..2 teams had 3 QB's, 3 teams had 2 QB's, some variance between who those QB's are (no QB on more than 3 of the 5)
..all 5 teams had one of Rodgers, Brady or Brees, the top 3 all had Roethlisberger, only 1 had Vick (#2)
..4 of the 5 teams had 3 K's & 3 TD's...the only one who didn't had 2 of each but was #1
..Some variance between the K's & D's (no K or D on more than 3 of the 5)
..the total number of players ranged from 22-30 (in order of finish; 25,30,22,29,24) [side note: #6 only had 18 players]
..the total number of players costing $19 or more ("studs") ranged from 2-5
It looks like landing a key RB/WR/TE is more important than landing a key QB/K/TD. It also appears that 2 vs. 3 QB's is almost negligible as long as you have a top 5 QB who plays 16 games. I was surprised to see only one team with Vick and the constant appearance of Witten (which continues in many of the teams ranked a bit lower). Arian Foster is on pretty much everyone's team in the top 250 I'd guess.
