  PPR keeper auction league, $175 cap.
  
  Qb Cutler $4.25
  RB Arian Foster $42.50
  RB Cj2k $30.25
  WR Calvin Johnson $44
  WR Dez Bryant $20.75
  TE Antonio Gates $5.75
  K Garret Hartley $0.50
  D Arizona Cardinals $0.50
  QB EJ Manuel $1
  RB Gio Bernard $5
  RB Bernard Pierce $1.50
  RB Marcus Lattimore $1
  RB Shonn Greene $0.50
  RB Marcel Reece $0.50
  WR Reggie Wayne $11
  WR Sidney Rice $1.75
  WR Stephen Hill $1.50
  WR Denarius Moore $0.50
  WR Keenan Allen $0.50
  TE Julius Thomas $0.50
  TE Dennis Pitta $0.50
  K Randy Bullock $0.50
  
  Yeah I know about Pitta, but to get a top 10/12 TE in 2014 for only $0.50 was too good to pass up, one of my last 2 or 3 players I picked up towards the end when all I could afford was $0.5" players. I originally had Tony Romo as my keeper but once I saw all these teams getting their QBs and Rodgers/Brady/Brees/Kaepernick were still on the table with only 4 teams needing a QB I was confident I could take a stab at acquiring one of them and if I failed I could pick up Romo later on at a cheaper price than his $20.75 price tag. Well I failed at both paths, wound up with Cutler. I'm hoping Trestman's offense and being in a contract yr will propel him to a 10th/11th/12th finish because I felt Cutler/Foster/CJ2K was better to have than Romo/Foster/Gio. I really like Gio as my RB3 - I never want to rely on a rookie as my starter. Wayne at $11 was probably overkill, but Hilton went for $10 and as good as he will be Reggie Wayne isn't the one competing with DHB for a starting spot. I'm also hoping after a few good games I can swap Wayne for another depth RB or QB upgrade. My gamble of not keeping Moore at $4.25 paid off big time - I got him for only $0.50. Overall I have the strongest WR corps in the league with massive amounts of depth. My RB depth could be much stronger. Need EJ Manuel to play like Cam-lite.

  I'd trade away the chunk of salary that is Foster and get cheaper younger talent.

  At this point there's no need to trade salary - the draft is over. Normally you'd want to move salary before the draft starts to have more cap room to play with. I made my bed with Foster so I'm getting under the covers with him. If I move Foster it'll be around the trade deadline because something went wrong and my team is out of it.
