Standard rosters include one Quarterback (QB), two Running Backs (RB), two Wide Receivers (WR), one Tight End (TE), one Flex (RB/WR/TE), one Defense/Special Teams (D/ST), one Kicker (K) and seven Bench Spots (BE -- players on your roster who are not in your active lineup for a given week).

RB, RB, WR, WR/flex, WR/flex, flex/te/qb(earliest I would take QB), then bench players and any starting spots that aren't filled. Draft 1 QB (unless you like someone as a lottery pick), and you don't have to draft kicker or defense (pick up whichever of those has the best matchup each week).
Fill your roster first. Draft your starting RBs, WRs, QB, TE, and 2 additional starting flex positions before drafting back-up QBs, Ks or DSTs. In 1QB leagues, I often don't grab a back-up QB. There should still be plenty of those on the waiver later in the season.
Fantasy football league drafts, teams The manager picking first in the first round will then have the last pick in the second round. For example, a 10-team league would go from 1 to 10 in the first round, 10 to 1 in the second, 1 to 10 in the third, 10 to 1 in the fourth, and so on.
A fantasy football team consists of one quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, one tight end, one flex, one kicker, and a team defense/special teams.
I'd say the most usual league would be 0.5 ppr, superflex. Starting rosters would be 1 qb slot, 2 rb slots 2 wr slots, 1 te slot, a couple of flex slots depending on league size/taste and 1 superflex spot. Flex spots are usually two or three depending on how deep you want the starting rosters to get to.
Some fantasy leaguers try to form a pre-draft plan of how to construct their roster by position. For example, they might intend to start with a running back in the first round, then a wide receiver in the second, another wide receiver in the third, and a second running back in the fourth.
