TOPN with Filters

Hey all,
 
I'm trying to create a measure or table column (table column preferred I think) using TOPN. I'm new to PowerBI so may be thinking of this incorrectly, but looking for some help.
 
I'm working on a fantasy football tool and have one table named 'Franchises' with a list of Franchises in a league (this is dynamic based on the league I'm looking at so can range from 8 to 96 values, but let's go with 12, which is most common). I then have another table named 'Players' that includes a column named 'Franchise' that matches and has a relationship with the 'Franchises' table, then I want to leverage the 'Position' and 'Value' columns in this 'Players' table.
 
I've been able to find the Total Value of each Franchise by Position by using this formula in a custom column:
 
QB Total Value = CALCULATE(SUM(Players[Value (PPR)]),FILTER(Players,Players[Franchise]=Franchises[name]&&Players[position]="QB"))
 
but now I want to ONLY find the Sum of the TOP N values of each Franchise by Position. How can I add a TOP N into this formula?

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Hope these posts could help you:

    Calculating SUM of TOPN rows;

    Sum of Top3 Values.

     

    If they can't help you, please share me some sample data, not real data, for test.

      parry2k , thanks but I'm not interested in the visuals. I want either measures or calculated columns. I essentially want to do an Excel SUMIF with two criteria. So SUMIF of the "Value" column IF Franchise = Franchise && Position = "QB"
