12 team standard
I have Snead and the guy is offering Jordan Reed straight up. I only have Jared Cook at TE. Was unsure if I should wait to see if he and Rodgers can get on the same page or go forward with the trade as I'm not sure if Snead will be able to consistently put up WR1/2 numbers. However part of me thinks he can when looking at his overall body of work last year even taking into account a few low games. Also if I make the trade I'll be extremely thin at quality WR. Currently have Sanders, Decker, Kevin White, Snead, and Tyrell Williams.

Is Reed one of the highest producing TEs? Yes, when healthy. Is he one of the biggest injury concerns? Absolutely. Is TE a position that's reasonably easy to stream, yeah.

Hang on to Snead. If you had better WR depth, I'd say take the chance, but you can't leave yourself forced to start Sanders, Decker, and White/Williams.

Who are the TEs on the WW/FA?

Usually I like your opinions, but we differ on this one. He can't afford to with his WR depth. If Snead was his WR4/5, then sure. But Snead is arguably his WR1/2 on that team.

To be fair, I'm biased against Reed because he's burned me too many times in the past. I just don't trust his health.

What are the WRs and TEs on the WW/FA?

What's your RB situation? Do you have a solid 3rd for the flex or do you need 3 quality receivers? What TEs are on the WW? Cook got you 0 points in standard last week, that's scary moving forward.

Some of my same thoughts as well. Not many, but best available WR are: Brandon Lafell (who I'd pick up if I had another spot/someone to drop, Eddie Royal, Enunwa, Agholor, Britt, Kerley, and the list continues to go downward.

Kind of the same boat at TE as they are mostly trash or too inconsistent. Best available TE: Doyle, DOnnell, McDonald, Rudolph, Tamme, Marcedes Lewis, Gresham.

I'm alright at RB unless they all start to shite the bed, which is possible considering how Sunday went. However it was sort of the same for everyone. Tons of "off days" for traditional high point players.
My RBs: Freeman, Martin, Hill, Abdullah, Forsett (had West as well, but dropped to get Williams) and Crowell.

If you can get the #1 TE for a WR3 its a no brainer.

do the trade, drop your TE, pick up Lafell or someone. I think it makes you better overall.

Your TE pool is scarcer than the WR pool. I'm wavering a bit now.

You could make the trade, then drop Cook for Agholor who looks to have some potential this year.

But then again, I just don't trust Reed's health. I would be kicking myself seeing Snead tear it up on someone else's team and an injured Reed on my team.

Tough call. I'm going to stick to my original opinion, simply because I don't trust Reed's health, but after seeing the WW/FA options for WR & TE, I can see the argument for the trade.
