I wouldn't necessarily say there will be a drop off between 1625(us) and the rest of the bots, but more of a different level of strategy. The whole entire game this year relies more on the strategy of the alliance/team. From what i hear 1732 played defense practically the whole day Thursday at MW and for the most part shut down 1114 in those practice matches. Also from what i gathered in the quarterfinals of MW the #8 alliance changed their strategy after the first match. They effectively changed it because they caused the big upset of beating 71, 1114, and 1000. Our strategy played out very well for us at MW and hopefully it will do the same at Wisconsin. I think its fair to say that every robot has its own weakness.
I also want to say look out for 2039. They improved greatly over MW and should be considered a threat. 1732, 2022, 2338 are good bots and should be watched. My opinion for the top 8:
1) 1625
2) 2039
3) 1732
4) 93
5) 171
6) 141
7) 1024
8) 2022
