Should I try and upgrade WRs or sit tight for now?

12-Man PPR

My Team
Record: 5-1
QB: Palmer
RB: Bell, Lewis, Woodhead, Gore, Ellington
WR: Maclin, Garcon, Benjamin, Rashard Matthews, Dez*
TE: Eifert, Barnidge
Flx: RB/WR

With Dez up in the air on his return I've been wanting to target a WR with a lot of upside. Guy in my league needs a RB and wants to deal Cobb. Cobb has struggled as of late but there is potential there.

He has offered Woodhead/Matthews for Cobb/Yeldon but thats giving up 2 solid guys for 2 question marks, so I'm not wanting to do that. I thought about offering Gore for Cobb straight or I can throw in Matthews as well since he's a bench guy for me currently.

His Team
Record: 2-4
QB: Rivers, Tanny
RB: Latavius, Yeldon, Buck, Denard, Andrews, Knile (had Jamaal)
WR: Cobb, Evans, Martavis, Alshon, Stevie
TE: Olsen

I actually traded him Alshon/Stevie for Eifert/Matthews earlier in the season.

Should I try and make a deal with him? 85% of me knows I should stay where I'm at.... but I'm a trade-addict

I would make that trade. Cobb > Matthews and IMO Yeldon > Woodhead (but maybe not in PPR. But I would want Cobb on my roster.

Yeldon does not provide the value that Woodhead does in PPR.

Woodhead leads all RBs in reception yards. He has demonstrated, when healthy, that he is a rock-solid RB2.

That being said, the upgrade from R. Matthews to Cobb is drastic, no matter Cobb's struggles over the last couple weeks. GB has a Bye and it gives players like Cobb and Lacy a chance to get healthy.

I would do this trade if I were the OP.
