Ditto on TD. There is really a wealth of knowledge bouncing around in that head of his.
I think Nathan and Gaël don't get nearly the recognition they deserve - but then of course I'd say that. 
The Mormon lefties (MormDem, Pioneer) are good choices, as are DFB and Figuiera. Among conservatives, I'd say Simfan and TJ in Cleve deserve more praise (although I have my issues with both).
Old Scott would definitely be up there, but I really can't stand the new persona he's adopted since his return. I know he has good reasons and I don't judge him at all, but that's still what it is.
Edit: Forgot TD. I love his commentary on congressional politics.
I'll concede that DFB is a good poster in the sense that he's substantive. Of course we don't get along-I compared him to Richard Ramirez and he threatened to clock me in a prior private IRC conversation, but that doesn't change the fact that his posts - however egregious the commentary can be to a Trumpist - are extremely well written and unique from a perspective that most of Atlas cannot relate to.
Nathan is an incredible poster. I still contend he is the conscience of this forum. We don't have a better person among us then him.
TD is my latest favorite. I can't believe I once disliked him, but when I'm absolutely whipped in an argument I naturally come to respect the poster who've done it.
Thank you all.
All of you bring interesting arguments to the forums and I do like reading all of you. So I appreciate the sentiment.
(Also, Sanchez, I was a d*ck at the time, so...)
H/t to Technocratic Timmy in addition to the aforementioned people.
