Trade Freeman for Luck and Ingram?

Currently 6-3 in PPR. Just acquired Freeman through trade. Trade deadline is this week. Do I try to upgrade my QB or live or die with Bortles / Carr? Current roster:

QBs: Carr, Bortles
RBs: Freeman, L. Miller, D. Woodhead, L. Blount, K. Williams
WRs: R. Cobb, M. Bryant, A. Hurns, K. Wright, DGB
TEs: A. Gates, R. Rodgers

Thanks!

Dont do the trade. Between Brotles and Carr you've got the rest of the season covered, and QB won't matter as much in your PPR format as the skill spots will. Luck still needs to find his rhythm and the Colts as an organization are not above tossing a season to make for better draft spots.

Id get rid of Blount and Clay. It seems odd but those are both players who have "strong" first-half-of-season totals but they slum after the midpoint. See: Clay as a dolphin second half, alright numbers but he was stoppable. Blount, its Lewis' team, Blount is the pound dog, and they seem to use him as an 'illusion' that they have a run game only to drop it to Lewis. There is little trade value in either but you may be able to get Olson at TE for both of them.

Freeman: dont get rid of him. Full disclosure: he was my sleeper last year and this year. I was right this year. He catches the ball and obviously runs it. You never get rid of that in a PPR, consider this; whoever you get for him has to total 30+ points each week in order to be worth it, and thats taking up two player slots.

I'd do that trade.
I'd also drop one of those QBs and drop Tamme.
