Should I draft a WR first?

Now that most leagues are PPR it is advantageous to draft high quality, targeted often WRs. I would always take one of the top 4 RBs first but after that you should stack your team with WRs. Leagues that I participate in normally have some sort of slash player that undoubtedly becomes a WR. Let’s look at the top 40 ranked players:

1. Ray Rice, RB, Ravens 
2. LeSean McCoy, RB, Eagles 
3. Arian Foster, RB, Texans 
4. Aaron Rodgers, QB, Packers 
5. Chris Johnson, RB, Titans 
6. Tom Brady, QB, Patriots 
7. Calvin Johnson, WR, Lions 
8.  Maurice Jones-Drew, RB, Jaguars 
9. Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Cardinals 
10. Drew Brees, QB, Saints 
11.  Rob Gronkowski, TE, Patriots 
12. Andre Johnson, WR, Texans 
13. Greg Jennings, WR, Packers 
14. Hakeem Nicks, WR, Giants 
15. Matthew Stafford, QB, Lions 
16.  Jimmy Graham, TE, Saints 
17. Ryan Mathews, RB, Chargers 
18. Fred Jackson, RB, Bills 
19.  Trent Richardson, RB, Browns 
20.  Marshawn Lynch, RB, Seahawks 
21.  Darren McFadden, RB, Raiders 
22. Victor Cruz, WR, Giants 
23. Cam Newton, QB, Panthers 
24. Ahmad Bradshaw, RB, Giants 
25. Julio Jones, WR, Falcons 
26. Roddy White, WR, Falcons 
27. A.J. Green, WR, Bengals 
28. Wes Welker, WR, Patriots 
29. Brandon Marshall, WR, Bears 
30. Jordy Nelson, WR, Packers 
31. Jamaal Charles, RB, Chiefs 
32. Matt Forte, RB, Bears 
33. Percy Harvin, WR, Vikings 
34. Tony Romo, QB, Cowboys 
35. Dez Bryant, WR, Cowboys 
36. DeMarco Murray, RB, Cowboys 
37. Dwayne Bowe, WR, Chiefs 
38. Mike Wallace, WR, Steelers 
39. Antonio Brown, WR, Steelers 
40. Philip Rivers, QB, Chargers
    

Of the top 40 players 17 were WRs, 14 were RBs, 7 were QBs and 2 were TEs. This tells me that the majority of the points will come from WRs this upcoming year. I am not saying having a combination of Antonio Brown, Dwayne Bowe and AJ Green are going to outscore Tom Brady and Calvin Johnson but you have a more realistic chance of having the first three rather than the last two. 

Proper draft strategy, if you can get Ray Rice (who is due for a tough year with the amount of carries he has had), Arian Foster, MJD, or LeSean McCoy take them. If you can get Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady take them. After those players are gone go after all the top WRs on the board. In my opinion after the top RBs and QBs are gone the rest are just about the same. If you can get a Ben Roethlisburger or Matt Ryan in the 5th or 6th round go for it. Getting Andre Johnson and Wes Welker on your team will get you monster points!
