I know one girl who won her office FF last year, by drafting on autopick and then selecting her players by which ever one had the highest number next to % of leagues in which this player has been selected to play. Never made a trade. She only made on drop, that player was on IR and selected the player that was currently the player with the highest % of being in other people's leagues. She literally had the team on autopiolet all season long.
Royally pissed of the rest of the league and she wasn't invited back this year.
Doesn't surprise me at all. A lot of us, myself included, tend to over think Fantasy sports. Lots of times the answer is right there in front of you but you overlook trying to find the "sleeper" pick or the "outside the box" payoff
