Offense: QB, WR1, RB1

DEF: User(usually SS in sublb1) , Cb1, Cb2

The others are also important but you can get by but if you dont good cards at those positions you will not have a good time.

I might argue that TE1 and 2 are just as important as WR1 and 2.....I run a lot of 2 TE sets, sometimes 3 TE....Metzelaars, Delanie, and soon to be Pitts. HUGE difference in the run game and also, those 3 can catch, and can truck guys after the catch. All are mis-matches for safeties and especially LBs.

Plus if they stay in to block, much more effective than WRs (other than Hines Ward)

On D, right after your user, I think your edge rushers are probably next. Leonard Floyd, with Double or nothing and edge threat, along with Seymour with defensive rally for 0 AP, is an absolute problem for any offense. With Strahan or another really solid pass rusher on the other side, with under pressure...the opposing QB either won't have time to throw to a developing route, or will get an accuracy penalty for being under pressure unless he has fearless (and then he only has immunity to pressure with set feet in the pocket - that's how fearless is supposed to work).

Really depends on the scheme but I generally think its:

Off: QB, WR1/TE1, WR2/TE2, OT, RB

Def: User, CB/S (depending on scheme), DE (pressure makes secondary less important in the right scheme, similar to real life)
