Aaron Rodgers for Christine Michael? No brainer, right?

Someone offered me HIS Aaron Rodgers (18.8) for MY Christine Michael (12 PPG). League is 10-team with standard scoring.
My other runningbacks are Spencer Ware, Mark Ingram, Matt Forte, and Doug Martin.
My current quarterbacks are Carson Palmer, and Tyrod Taylor.
I have to accept this right? Do we even think Christine Michael can continue his play after Rawls gets back?
EDIT: I dropped Kirk Cousins for Devante Adams this morning. I only have Palmer and Taylor at QB.

Nope, not worth it. Rodgers isn't even much of an upgrade over Taylor or Cousins.

Do it, Rawls is coming

I think this is a solid trade and will probably come out in your favor. Rodgers, even as bad as he is playing this year, is still averaging 26pts/gm and his lowest is 17pts. Michael has a high ceiling and a low floor and who knows what is going to happen once Rawls comes back. It's a gamble to keep him and getting rid of him, with your other running backs, won't hurt you.

Not sure where you are getting an avg of 26pt/game, he's scored that exactly once. Avg is right a 19

Obviously it depends on the type of league you're playing. I assume standard since he didn't specify and in that his average is 26pts/gm. His high is 36.

His Rogers for your Micheal
In a heartbeat. Hell, you have plenty of backs.
Rogers could explode at any time and Rawls coming back.

First, I want to address this:
In ESPN "standard" scoring (1 pt per 25 passing, 4pt passing TD) his aveeage is 19.8pts/game. You have different scoring methods, that's fine, but 26pts/game in standard scoring would be the top QB by a longshot.
He's the #11 QB right now, so right on the borderline of QB1 status.
Now to answer the OP:
I think, for starters, you have way too many QBs on your roster. Unless this is a 2 QB league there shouldn't really be a reason to own more than 2 QBs. Now if you get Rodgers that would be 4 QBs, that's no good. So, I would look to trade some of them away if possible, if not, drop at least one to get some depth elsewhere.
I don't think I would do this deal if I were you. Rodgers is a slight upgrade for you at QB, but he has a few tough games, especially during fantasy playoffs, that probably just keep him as a low end QB1, which is basically what you already have too many of.
Michael is running pretty well and has a pretty favorable ROS schedule. Rawls will eat into his carries some, but I think it's Michael's job to lose at this point.
Also: if you decide to do this trade, I would recommend trying to stall it one week. Michael plays NO this week, and that's an excellent matchup that I wouldn't want to miss out on.

I dropped Kirk Cousins for Devante Adams this morning. I only have Palmer and Taylor at QB.
This is my line of thinking as well. I need a win and Michael's matchup this week is great.

Not so sure. I think people are optimistically over valuing Rawls in this thread.
