Steven Jackson for Roy Williams?

Some of you will probably laugh at me for even asking this, bit would you do a trade Roy Williams for Steven Jackson.  Here is my team: (8 team league)
 
QB Brooks, Brady
RB Holmes, Barber, Rudi Johnson, Suggs
WR Holt, Darrell Jackson, Roy Williams, Rod Smith, Driver
TE Eric Johnson, Clark
K   Josh Brown
DEF NE, Denver
 
These are the positions that we start every week:
 
QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, (WR/RB), TE, K, DEF
 
The reason I ask is because I realize that right now Williams is a better player, but Jackson could see his role increase dramatically.  It could be a high upside risk that would give me another great running back.  I guess I just feel like I have a better receiving corps then RBs and could use the extra oomph.  Any help appreciated.  Also, FYI, this IS NOT a keeper league, we draft new teams every year.

I would not do it.  Roy Williams is on fire.  You are trading a sure thing for a MAYBE.  That makes no sense to me.  IF  it was a keeper league, obviously that would be a total different story.

Sounds like someone is trying to play you just because Williams is coming off an injury.
 
Williams is to keep, no matter what the nature of your league is.

You've got a great RB corps already.  You should be fine with Holmes and Barber starting every week and running Suggs or Johnson out as a flex when needed.
 
I'd do it if it was a keeper league, but since it's not, there's no need to make the trade.
 
(You've got a sweet RB and WR corps... I'm jealous.  Lee Suggs is your #4 RB and Donald Driver is your #5 WR...????)
