Trade Forte?

I was recently offered Calvin Johnson and Donald Brown for Matt Forte and Torry Holt. I have Beanie Wells and Shonn Greene that could take the RB3 spot very easily. My only concern is CJ's knee. Do you take this trade?

QB- Aaron Rogers, Mark Sanchez
RB-Adrian Peterson, Deangelo Williams, Matt Forte, Beanie Wells, Shonn Greene
WR-Donnie Avery, Torry Holt, Kevin Walter, Devery Henderson, Sam Aiken
TE-Vernon Davis, Dustin Keller
 
In a heart beat I would.

Do I wait a week for Forte to hopefully have a good week against a weak Cleveland Defense? I could probably drop donald brown and torry holt from the trade.

He also has Vincent Jackson, and Steve Smith as his other two WR's. Maybe I could attemt a trade for Jackson instead. Thoughts?

V Jackson would be nice, no doubt about that. As far as waiting a week on Forte to have a good game 2 things. A- My wife has been waiting on him to have a good game all year, where's it at? Second, what if he has another poor game? Think that other team owner will be so hot to make the trade if Forte can't put up numbers this week? I know I wouldn't. I'd make the trade before Forte has another potential dismal outing. You don't need him with your other RB's. Keeping Forte will likely cause you to miss some good starts by Beanie and maybe even Greene down the road. Unload the bum.

With your WR situation I'd do it. I don't think it downgrades your team at all. Plus when CJ is heathy you'll have true number one to put in your line up. I think that adds to your total points every week.
 
Well that sucks for this week, i lost the game because of the trade. And i started CJ -- who obviously didn't play. Hopefully it works out for the rest of the year! Thanks for the advice.
