huge blockbuster trade...need input
My team:QB - Ryan, Palmer
RB - Ivory, Woodhead, spiller, jstew, ryan mathews
WR - demaryius, jordan matthews, landry, james jones, marvin jones
TE - Gronk
This trade was batted around last night:
I give Gronk, Ivory, Woodhead, Landry, James Jones and possibly Palmer for Antonio Brown, Randall Cobb and Gio Bernard
The trade would leave me extremely thin at RB, but I would potentially have the ability to trade for an RB1, although there's no guarantee with that.
What are your thoughts?

2-VSOP- (359 Reputation Points)agreed, terrible trade. I'd rather have Gronk etc than Cobb/Antonio/Gio. You're giving up a TE1, 2 RB2's (one with RB1 upside in Ivory), 2 WR2's and a top 5 QB this year for 2 WR1's and a RB3. If you really want Brown or Cobb, package one of your QB's in Ryan or Palmer, then James Jones and Jordan Mathews.3 Comments↳Michael Rehal (593 Reputation Points)i see your point. i'm the TE guru in my league, and gronk is my fav player and the absolute best player at his position in real and fantasy football. in theory, i could trade basically any of my WRs for an RB1, but the teams with the studs may be unwilling to give up the goods, which may screw me in the end. so you would not take this in any circumstance?↳-VSOP- (359 Reputation Points)unless you can unload your WR1 in Demaryius plus Palmer, James Jones, Jstew for his Cobb/Antonio. I wouldn't trade Gronk though while depleting your starting RB's↳Michael Rehal (593 Reputation Points)interesting trade. i'll have to run that by him to see his thoughts. i think he wants gronk in the deal, but i'd be willing to give upDT as well

0Alex Venti (520 Reputation Points)You already suck at RB and you're trying to trade away your only decent option, you shouldn't even consider this1 Comment↳Michael Rehal (593 Reputation Points)only reason i considered it was to be able to make a deal for RB1, which as I said, isn't guaranteed
