Team Foundation Server: References Issue

I am very new to TFS and I am having trouble with references after checking out a solution and trying to build it. When I build the solution it gives me several error messages such as

"The type or namespace 'AspNet' does not exist in the 'Microsoft' namespace..."

I have tried using NuGet to manage the packages, but I still have 6 errors similar to the one above.

Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Optimization' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Web' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Error 2 The type or namespace name 'FriendlyUrls' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft.AspNet' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Error 3 The type or namespace name 'IAppBuilder' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

(Errors 4 and 5 reference Optimization and IAppBuilder again.)

Error 6 The type or namespace name 'BundleCollection' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I cannot figure out how to get the last few errors out, and I need to find a way to avoid having to update my solution every time I check it out of my TFS.

We were dealing with a web site and when we attempted to add this web site to our TFS it was losing our references to all DLL's (including basic web DLL's). We created a shared folder location for our DLL's, copied the DLL's into the shared folder, and then converted our website to a web application using the following tutorial:

Converting a web site to a web application.

After we converted we added the project to our TFS and it worked without any issues.
