Trade offered to me

Hello All
 
This is my first post this year.  I have a 19 days old son so my focus has not been on fantasy football as much as in the past.  
 
I just got a trade offer.  The other owner offered Keyshawn Johnson and Brian Westbrook to me in exchange for Warrick Dunn and Donald Driver.
 
My initial thought is that this is not a good trade for me.  Westbrook is a very talented back, but it seems that he has a tendancy to get injured.  Also, Dunn is on about the same level especially now that Duckett is no longer with the Falcons.  
 
Keyshawn is a tool and very overrated.  
 
My only thought is to counter with Dunn and Driver for Westbrook and Burress.  
 
Here are our rosters.
 
My Team
Player
Plummer, Jake QB DEN 
Dunn, Warrick RB ATL 
Jackson, Steven RB STL 
Driver, Donald WR GB 
Glenn, Terry WR DAL 
Gates, Antonio TE SD 
Vinatieri, Adam K IND 
Redskins, DST DST WAS 
McNair, Steve QB BAL 
Lewis, Jamal RB BAL 
Morency, Vernand RB HOU 
Coles, Laveranues WR NYJ 
Winslow, Kellen TE CLE 
Jaguars, DST DST JAC 
 
 
His Team
Player
McNabb, Donovan QB PHI 
Alexander, Shaun RB SEA 
Westbrook, Brian RB PHI 
Burress, Plaxico WR NYG 
Owens, Terrell WR DAL 
Smith, L.J. TE PHI 
Feely, Jay K NYG 
Ravens, DST DST BAL 
Johnson, Brad QB MIN 
Benson, Cedric RB CHI 
McAllister, Deuce RB NO 
Johnson, Keyshawn WR CAR 
Muhammad, Muhsin WR CHI 
Franks, Bubba TE GB 
 
My league's general rules are in the signature below.
 
Please let me know what you think.

1st off....congrats Dude!  
 
 
Without rec pts, I don't really like this trade.  
 
Keyshawn and Driver are a wash, but I'd give the edge to Keyshawn.   Burress is obviously a big step up from both those guys.    
 
Dunn is going to get you a lot of yards, and has less injury history than Westy.   Westy will get a lot more receptions, but if that doesn't count...
 
If you can get Westy & Burress, do it NOW!   But I don't think I'd do it for Me-shawn.
 
Good Luck on being a new Dad!

Thanks for the congratulations and the advice, Capt. Purple.
 
I am going to pass on the trade and not bother with a counter offer.  I feel pretty good about my roster right now.  I could use some more firepower at wide receiver and quarterback.  However, I think my average players at those spots are well supported by my strength at running back.

Congrats on the new arrival!
 
I would make the counter offer that you came up with and see what he says. I don't like his original deal to you.
