Should I trade Peyton Manning?

Here is my team as it stands:
QB: Manning and Matt Ryan
RB: Forte, Matthews, Mason, and McKinnon
WR: Nelson, Tate, Benjamin, Mathews, Adams, Harvin and Short.
TE: Julius Thomas

The guy has bugged me all year for Manning. Here is his team:
QB: Roethlisberger and Sanchez
RB: Bell(Pitt), Ingram, and Morris.
WR: Beckham, Bryant(Pitt), Evans, Gordon, Parker(NYG) and Sanu.
TE: Rivera(Oak), and Rudolph.

I like my 1-2 combo of Manning and Thomas, but could use some help at RB for the playoffs. I'm currently sitting in 2nd place, good for a week 14 bye!!!

This is a 12-team standard league, but we do get 6 points for every passing touchdown, so Manning is good for 18 points from TD's and another 10 from yards every week, as long as he doesn't turnover the ball!!!

Any thought???

No. You can easily win a 12-team league with that roster and there are almost RBs that offer such an upgrade over whatever you can put into your RB2 slot that would compensate for the loss of production at the QB slot. You're much better off trading some of your depth WRs (like Jordan Mathews who is coming off of a huge game) for some RB depth. Ntm, Ryan Mathews may very well turn out to be a solid RB2.

I was thinking of seeing if he would take Manning for Bell, Ingram, Bryant and Gordon. I'm not crazy about it, but I think it would be close to a Hershall Walker trade as I could get.
