Trade Question -- A. Morris for M. Stafford
I have Cam Newton as QB, and I don't think that I can trust him anymore. My rbs are D. Murray, L. Bell, A. Bradshaw, and T. Mason, in addition to A. Morris. I also have J. Gordon coming back in Wk. 12 (for WR2/Flex). RGIII, C. Palmer, A. Dalton, A. Davis, and J. Flacco are available on the waiver wire. .5 PPR.

Would you make this trade?

    Now IS the time to strike on Stafford. His value is relatively low (he's behind Roethlisberger, Cutler, Ryan, Romo, and even Flacco to this point). Of course, a big part of that is the absence of Calvin Johnson, and he's coming back. So too should Stafford's numbers.

    That all being said, I think I'd try to hold Morris, at least until Murray and Bell get through their byes in Weeks 11 and 12. Morris should see a bit of a rebound as well if Griffin is able to recapture even half of what he was in 2012. If you want to do the trade, there's nothing wrong with it; its fair. and other than Weeks 11 and 12, I don't think you can start Morris over Murray or Bell. But I still worry about Murray slowing down and/or getting hurt with all that work he's been getting, and you'd hate to be down Morris then.

    All things considered, I personally would drop Mason and pick up Palmer. Or Griffin if you're feeling lucky. But probably Palmer. He's been great since coming back, looking even better than last year, and has great weapons. Griffin has a fantastic cast around him as well, but seems to be held together with chewing gum and bailing wire at this point. You just never know when he could get injured again.

    So, while you CAN do that trade, I'm more a fan of dropping Tre Mason and grabbing Carson Palmer. He should NOT still be on the wire at this point.

    I do have Joseph Randle as a handcuff too. Does that change things for you?

    I think I would. Without looking at bye weeks, I think you're fine at RB using Bradshaw as a plug.
