Hey guys, I'm playing the SportingNews Ultimate Fantasy Football game for the first time this year, and can't decide what is the most important position or how to structure a team with this scoring format. It is a salary cap (50mil) game, so any player is available.

Additional Scoring Breakdown

1 Receiving Yards - On any play where a player receives a lateral beyond the line of scrimmage and advances the ball, all yards gained are counted as receiving yards. There will be no corresponding reception awarded. If a ball is lateralled but mishandled, resulting in a fumble, the play from that point will be treated as a fumble recovery and no points will be awarded for any further advancement of the ball.

2 Touchdowns - Any individual TD = 60 points for the individual player. If a player scores a touchdown in ANY way he will get credit for it.

3 Points Allowed - The following will count as points allowed by a defense:

# Any offensive touchdown by a team, and the corresponding PAT.
# Any field goals.
# Any two point conversion (regardless of how the touchdown was scored).

The following will not count against a team:

# Defensive touchdowns and the corresponding PAT.
# Special teams touchdowns, kick return touchdowns and the corresponding PAT.
# Safeties.

For example, if Baltimore is playing against New England, and New England scores (1) rushing touchdown, (1) passing touchdown, (2) field goals, and returns (1) fumble for a touchdown and (1) punt for a touchdown, Baltimore would be credited with giving up 20 points, 7 for the rushing touchdown, 7 for the passing touchdown, and 6 for the (2) field goals.

4 Defensive touchdowns - Defensive touchdowns = interception return, fumble return after any change of possession, missed field goal return, blocked field goal returns, and blocked punt returns.
