Am I crazy to consider this?
8-team 0.5 PPR league.QB: Brady, Romo, Cutler
RB: Murray, Charles, Foster
WR: Megatron, AJ Green, Evans, Gordon, Benjamin, Beckham
TE: J. Thomas, Rivera
We start 2 RB, 2 WR, and 1 flex. I am really pushing to try to trade for Aaron Rodgers, but his owner is being stubborn. Even though he needs help at WR, he won't accept a package with guys like Evans, Benjamin, or Beckham.
Would I be crazy to offer up something like Megatron+Brady or Green+Brady for Rodgers? I have very capable replacements at WR.

1Chris Moser (525 Reputation Points)I don't think you would be getting the right value back. Food for thought: I just traded Gordon + Cutler + Fred Jackson for Luck + Trent Richardson + Vincent Jackson. Brady and Megatron should get you Rodgers + a solid WR.1 Comment↳JEG (352 Reputation Points)Of course I'm not getting fair value back. That's besides the point. Does it make my team (in particular the starting lineup) stronger?

1Warren Rixon (389 Reputation Points)I don't think I would bother. The gain from Brady to Rodgers isn't that substantial, and you'd be losing about the same thing at WR. Also, it sounds like giving him Megatron / Green will make his team a lot better, so unless you think this guy is not going to be competitive with you then you are probably hurting yourself making the trade2 Comments↳JEG (352 Reputation Points)This guy is out of the hunt. That's one of the reasons I want to deal with him.↳Warren Rixon (389 Reputation Points)In that case yeah I think it probably makes your team slightly stronger. Probably prefer to give up AJ Green than Megatron - AJ plays the Browns in week 15.

0Michael Rehal (593 Reputation Points)well, depending on what your offer was including benjamin, beckham, etc, i probably wouldn't trade rodgers either. You said WR is your strong point, so use your assets to get him. Gordon, Brady, Beckham.2 Comments↳JEG (352 Reputation Points)He's not going for that either. What about what I mentioned with Megatron or Green?↳Michael Rehal (593 Reputation Points)i don't think it's worth it for them.
