Here are some observations from the cheap seats.
QB- with 5 tier 1 QBs and 2 or 3 tier 2's, the QB position looks very deep. While we all love to find the hidden gems, save those gems to be your QB2 or even QB3. No need to get cute at this position.
RB- The RB position looks deep as well but, the depth lies in the third tier. While there are 5 tier 1 RBs and 3 or 4 tier 2's, there are like 12 or so tier 3's. Good upside backs you should be able to wait on include Blount, Fred Jackson, Moreno, Grant and Turner. These RBs should be going anywhere from RB15-25 in your leagues.
WR- This is the most shallow group of reliable studs that I can remember. The droppoff after 15 or so is fairly significant while the dropoff after 25 or so is like a cliff. There are very few reliable WR2s going into the year with quite a few unknowns penciled into their team's WR2 spot. I would strongly consider drafting WRs in rounds 2 and 3 this year.
TE- While the tier 1's arent deep, there are a bunch of tier 2 and 3's and a lot of kids with upside. If you want Gates Clark Davis or Witten, youll need to reach but you should be fine with Graham, Celek, Pettigrew or Finley.
