The problem if you don't have a plan is you can end up getting a bunch of "value" guys and no real stars. I have a friend who did a 10-team auction and got some great prices on guys (MJD, Vareen, D Richardson, Hakeem Nicks, Colston and Lacy for all well below "value"). The problem was he kept avoiding the big money guys and left with money unspent.
In a 10-team especially, you want to budget yourself 2-3 top tier guys. The best way is to have a list of 5-7 guys per spot and a limit that you set as a combo of prep and after the first few auctions. Then, if one of your guys is ending near that limit, pounce.
If you just do the "I'm looking for value" method in a 10-teamer, you may have the top 10 RBs, WRs and 5 QBs all gone and you are still sitting there with $200 because none were "values".
