Which RB to keep, which to trade?

I'm in an 8 team auto-draft league that just processed.   The RBs I ended up with Ahman, Taylor, Rudi, QGriffin & Wheatley.  I have McCariens, KRobinson & DJackson at WR.   I obviously need to trade for a WR, do you let Rudi, Q or Wheatley go?  I'm thinking of packaging QGriffin and Robinson to a Denver homer for Harrison and a tier 2 guy like JSmith.  
 
Any thoughts?
 
BTW, I hate those damn autodrafts!   It took DJackson, then came right back in the next round and grabbed KRob!

If you can pull off Griffin+KRob for Harrison+JSmith then you play with morons, not homers.
 
Give it a try.  But I wouldn't set your sights so high.  
 
Maybe FTaylor+KRob for a Harrison+ScrubRB would be more realistic.

  Yeah, I got some morons allright!   But this guy isn't one of them and isn't willing to part with Harrison.   I've now set my sights on another guy, team name Mighty Geekoids, user name is geekus_maximus.   Does that give you some idea of the competition?  
 
I've offerred him Taylor and KRob for Moss & Emmitt.

Well, no luck getting a deal done yet.   Would you start both KRob  and DJax vs NO?   Or should I insert McCariens?   Also have both MRob and Burleson (Minny) on the FA wire.
 
Thoughts?

I would be inclined to start McCareins v-vs- the secondary and lack of pass rush of the Cincy Bengals.
It should be interesting to see how McCareins works as a #2 WR since he mostly played in the slot last season w/ Ten.

Also to keep an eye on is the CB situation in regards to Deltha O'Neal as if he isn't healthy enough to play (ankle) then, a ROOKIE will be taking his place = McCareins could shine.

If you can do the trade you mentioned, DO IT!  If not, I would try to take advantage of all the (largely misplaced) McCareins hype and deal McCareins and Griffin.  Moving Griff is only going to get harder.  You missed the window on that as per my Broncos report (http://www.ffpro.com/teamreports/broncos/broncos-footballinfoframes.htm), but it is still more open than it will be next week or the following week and so on.  As for McCareins, there is NO WAY the Jets produce two 1,000-yard, 8-touchdown receivers.  Barring injury Moss is their guy.  That's that for that.  McCareins is good for at most about 900 yards and 8 touchdowns.  His "windows", though, are probably like 650 - 950 yards and 5 to 8 touchdowns receiving.  Move him now while there are still suckers out there who think he is going to supplant Moss, rather than complement him, which is why he was brought in.

He needs to move either K-Rob or D-Jax because of the bye-week/same-team issue.  Sure, moving McCareins might yield better returns, but he still has the same issue he is trying to remedy.
