We had a auction draft in one of the leagues I am in tonight. I am the defending champion so I want to come back with a good team. Its a keeper league but because of league rules I could only keep one player, Rob Gronkowski at $5. 

The draft started on NFL.com and that website was not working right so we went to ESPN to start over. That made for a long night, but it helped me get a couple players I wanted once we restarted. Those were LeSean McCoy (who helped me win the championship last year) and Aaron Rogers.  After that I was low on funds so I had to try to get value picks.  I wanted Eric Decker for the Broncos at WR, I think he is underrated and should be good with Manning at QB.  

Here is my team:

Team Carstensen
QB Aaron Rodgers 24 
RB LeSean McCoy 40 
RB Toby Gerhart 5 
WR Eric Decker 10 
WR Sidney Rice 1 
TE Rob Gronkowski 5 
FLEX Cedric Benson 3 
K Stephen Gostkowski 1 
BE Evan Royster 3 
BE Michael Crabtree 1 
BE Laurent Robinson 1 
BE Matt Flynn 1 
BE James Starks 1 
BE Dion Lewis 1 
BE Alex Green 1 
Total: 98
Remaining: 2
 
I think it looks worse then it is.  I need one of the Packers RB's to standout and also need one of the other $1 WR to do much better then expected and I would be tough to beat in this league.

Chuck, I was a high school assistant football coach for 17 years and I have never investigated the fantasy football league.  This helps me understand it better!  I would say you have to be happy having Aaron Rodgers at the QB position!  Good luck!

Fantasy Football is a great way to enjoy the entire season, whether your personal team does well or not. Right now I am happy that we have won our first two pre-season games.
