Nathan Clark reached the season podium without recording a top-10 finish in any individual contest. The apparent contradiction was the purest expression of his advantage: every week counted, and none collapsed.
Six cards placed 43rd or better. Clark survived 10 March picks to Day 8 for 13th, took 14th in NFL Survivor, and rode Argentina's 62 to 17th at the World Cup. College football added 25th, the NBA 29th and the NHL 43rd.
Even his low, 157th in golf, stayed out of the bottom quarter. That relentless floor produced 1908.5 points and 3rd place, a two-spot dip that does nothing to diminish one of the league's most complete seasons.
