Is your question referencing the level of talent needed at the position or just the position in the scheme? Because if you are just looking at the position within the scheme this is an impossible list to make.

I know people like to bash Fox but in my opinion his philosiphy is very rounded and proven to success. All positions have to work together in harmony in order for their to be success. WR are as important to the running game as the OL. RB are asked to be as capable of blockers as TE. Safety's have to tackle as well as a LB and CB are asked to blitz like a DE. Hell, even our DE have been asked to cover like OLB. Not to mention just how important the kicking game (punts) are to field position and TOP. And considering that his philosiphy is a grind it out style place kicking either wins or loses you alot of games.

Just look at NO. That team was so dependent on the passing game under Sean Payton but once Williams came on as the DC they were able to figure out how to make all the parts work together and it resulted in a championship.

Now if you take this same concept and looked at it from a talent level or availability of talent perspective then I think you can find a lot more insight.
