Need some advice... PPR league.

I was offered this big trade but can't decide if it will benefit me:

My team:

Qb-Wilson
RB- Forte, Gio
WR- Antonio Brown, Crabtree, Garcon
TE- Walker
Flex-Brandin Cooks

Bench
Pierre Thomas, Gerhart, Hyde
Justin Hunter, Josh Gordon
Kaepernick

I would give up:
Gio, Garcon, Crabtree, Pierre Thomas, Cooks

I would get:
Calvin Johnson, Ellington, larry Fitz, Wheaton

I would hurt for the next 3 weeks, but my new lineup would be:

QB-Wilson
RB- Forte, Ellington
WR- Brown, Calvin, Larry Fitz
TE- Walker
Flex- Hunter or Wheaton

Bench:
Wheaton, Josh Gordon (Will end up being my flex)
RB- Gerhart :yak: but can pick up Crowell, Antonio Smith, Brandon Bolden, Benny Cunningham

Overall, I think my team will be unbeatable when Calvin returns, but I lose a good bit of depth. I don't see Ellington as that much of a downgrade, if any at all, to Gio. Thoughts?

that's a tough one. it only works if calvin comes back and does calvin type things. fitz and wheaton don't do anything for you and I like gio a little bit more than ellington. what's your record can you afford to wait and hope for mega?

I'm 3-3...highest scorer in the league but also have the most points scored against me. If I was 5-1 or 4-2, I'd do it in a heartbeat because I could afford to wait for Calvin to come back. I would hate to screw up a good performing team by making this trade. I should be in the top 2 of the league, but I can't help the matchups

being 3-3 I wouldn't do it. it hurts your team in the short run too much imo

I got him to throw in Hillman...Hillman can hold me over in the flex for 3 weeks until Calvin returns...think that is enough to do it? I see Larry Fitz as an improvment over Crabtree or Garcon with Palmer at QB. I thin kthe Hillman addition does it for me so I won't have to start Wheaton in the flex for the next couple of weeks.

I didn't realize palmer was back this week and that's why larry's production skyrocketed. knowing that and adding in Hillman for the flex, I'd do it

Looking to package Andre Johnson with either Romo or Ertz for a QB or TE upgrade. Anyone interested?

couldn't do the trade. I don't see peyton as big enough an upgrade over ryan/kaepernick to justify downgrading jordy to keenan. couldn't really find a trade between us I liked. I would like to get Jamaal but I doubt you'd take lesean on a bye when your playing me this week



to anyone else i'm in dire need of a filler rb for this week. desean, reuben, quick and sanu are all up for grabs if interested

If you're desperate, I'll do Lacy for LeSean and I'll just take a loss this week.
