Trade Matthews & Torrey Smith for AJ Green and Dwyer

1- PPR
12 Teams
Starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 Flex and 1 TE
My team: Big Ben, Vick
RB: McCoy, Matthews, Mendenhal, Stewart
WR: Andre Johnson, Antonio Brown, Torrey Smith, Josh Gordon, Brandon Lafell, Crabtree
TE: Vernon and Gresham

Better to make the move or stay? I figure AJ will boost my WR while Dwyer will ensure I own whoever starts for the Steelers. Thanks

As much as I might agree that you're giving up a good RB in Mathews, you WRs aren't very reliable. Dwyer might be the guy going forward and you have Mendenhall either way. You're talking Mathews for AJ Green (#1 WR in FF). I'll be in the minority but I would make the deal.

Not a chance in hell. McCoy and Mathews are auto-starts every week. You have enough at WR. No deal.

Stay put, you don't want to give up one of your two solid running backs.

I think you'd become too weak at RB to warrant making this deal. I think that as Mendenhall becomes healthy again, both of those guys will be getting carries to try to keep both healthy, making them both hit-or-miss plays each week. With Matthews, you are strong at RB, and good at receiver for a three WR format, with Crabtree, Gordon, or Mendenhall being reasonable to good gambles each week at the flex. I think you should stick with what you got, unless you could switch Smith for Gordon or Crabtree.
