  I've never done an auction league before, but apparently I'm in one that is drafting at 9:30 tonight. We get $400 to spend, only 8 teams. My team will fucking suck as I'm sure everyone else has been reading draft guides for weeks already.

  I'm not a big Jeremy Maclin fan, that's the only one I'm not big on, but other than that I'd have to know how many teams are in the league and what other guys were going for. Josh Freeman and Marcedes Lewis were absolute steals for those prices, though. I think Felix Jones is going to have a big year so I like that pick. Auction leagues are totally the way to go. Is it a future keeper league, because you could really take advantage of that Josh Freeman price if so.

  10 man league, non keeper.
  
  It's actually not my team, I served as an advisor and I didn't like the Maclin pick at all, he pulled the trigger without consulting (he's not exactly the smartest fantasy football player but he's my roommate so I told him I'd help out).

  I love auctions they are so much fun. I also only hate the Maclin pick no way I'd pay $21 for him. WRs are so weak though.

  Maclin pick (bid) blows. Some great steals though. Freeman, Garcon, Lewis, Floyd and especially Ingram! But man, Maclin for 21$ sheesh. He competes with way to many other weapons to be worth anything much higher than 10$ based on the other bids.
  
  Felix is a big bid as well, but I like it and apparently a lot of others in the league thought the same way. He is poised for a huge year if he stays healthy with Barber finally gone.
